Update

I'm currently on my reading break, which is pretty much my spring break, and have been busy as hell!
Okay! You got me!Yes I've been 9gag-ing and been on fb, reddit,pinterest (new obsession) and reading manga for the past few days. However, I have been taking some notes...but not enough (=__=")
I had all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ on Monday and made some new friends. Afterwards we went to Capstone for some dessert. To those who don't know, Capstone serves fondue, chocolate or cheese, as well as tea; most of us had the chocolate sampler (chocolate fondue with some fruits and cake cut into cubes). I was already full from dinner, but I regretted ordering the fondue....well guess what, I got fondue again (2 days later)!
I can explain... I previously planned a fondue date with Maiko, because 1) she has never tried chocolate fondue before, and 2) I got a "Deluxe Afternoon High Tea for 2" coupon for $38 (with a $77 value). The course set consists of:
  • Afternoon High Tea Set (sandwiches, croissants, macaroons, etc)
  • Chocolate Pot (one for each of us)
  • Fruit Dish (grapes, strawberries, pineapple, green apple)
  • Assorted Pastry Dish (cookies, lemon loaf, banana bread)
  • Ice-cream Truffles (9 pieces;we were served 9 pieces but the coupon didn't say how many)
  • 4 Toppings for ice-cream
  • 2 drinks
DO.NOT.UNDERESTIMATE.IT.
I underestimated the amount; we started eating at around 2:45-3pm (it took them quite a while to prepare the food) and we left at around 5:30pm...

I felt really bad for leaving some leftovers, but the guy was nice enough to give us a plastic cup and a lid for us to bag it out.

I now hereby promise myself that I will not touch chocolate fondue for at least a month......it's hurting my wallet and my appetite/eating habit/diet..
