Haagen Dazs

It was a nice sunny day yesterday afternoon, we had Haagen Dazs at a place called Mei Luo Cheng (美罗城).

We ordered double scoop, Rum Raisin, and Chocolate Chip flavored ice-cream.

Happily waiting for our ice-cream, it came in very watery condition, like gonna melt in 1 minute kinda situation.

We asked the waitress to look into it. She brought back the 2 scoops later, the only thing different is the sequence of the 2 scoops was reversed. Just now was rum raisin at the bottom, now the rum raisin is at the top. Still very watery. The waitress apologized saying because now is summer time, and the fridge kept opening and closing so the ice cream was not "solid". But she kept stressing that summer time the ice cream is like that.

I almost want to tell her - from where I come from, where 365 days also summer day, the Haagen Dazs there still serve solid Haagen Dazs ice-cream you idiot!!!

But I refrained myself. As my hubby always tell me when I am about to burst everytime, not worth angry at the people who does not even know they are idiot.

Look at this picture, this was just after few scoops taken after the ice-cream was served at our table. Not even 1 minute and the condition is like that, the chinese blame it on summer day. By the way, the Haagen Dazs was in air-conditioning room.

You laughing at the melted ugly branded ice-cream, or at the idiot waitress/Cheena punya U.S. branded Haagen Dazs, or at my blog?! ;)

This one is a classic: "not worth angry at the people who do not even know they are idiots." Deisy, you are well in order to make a list of must-go and must-skip restaurants. It would become the standard reference for well-informed Shanghainese.

Talking about must-go restaurant, we had one near Heng Shan Road, Italian restaurant, name Salvatore. It is the best restaurant we had eaten (western food lah) in the past 4 months.

Another one good for sandwich, also at Heng Shan Road, SPR Coffee, very nice sandwich and excellent service.

hahaha...;) Must skip that bloody Keven Cafe (please refer to my old blog). Bloody hell that one.

SPR Coffee? Let's see:
Stop Prisoner Rape?
Saving Private Ryan
South Park Republic
Special Purpose Register
Society for Psychiatric Research

In one word, what a stupid name for a cafetaria, it's a miracle that you remember it :)

Better than that Keven Cafe, who on earth can't spell Kevin or Calvin or Kelvin correctly but must name it Keven?

I feel like announcing to the whole world that Keven Cafe sucks. But still, the gui lou seems don't mind to go there for stupid service. Dunno why.
