Report on the ice cream.
There was one that was strange and yellow - I suggested it
might have been egg flavor but without any egg; my taste buds
did not discern any flavor; perhaps saffron without so much
saffron in it?
Ube (purple yam) was the usual, slightly yammy, mostly sour
creamish.
Tutti frutti was lurid swirls of artificial colors and probably
flavors; it wasn't actually too bad, sort of between strawberry
and bubble gum.
There was a nod to western palates - a sweet cream with crumbles
of chocolate cake, the best of the lot.
Report on the wine, which you have to go to the rooftop bar
to get. It is pretty mediocre, not to say bad. I'll just point
out that we didn't use all our coupons. The red was just like
bad red anyplace, except it wasn't cloying sweet and didn't
taste like plastic. Also, it was about a 3 oz pour, which
would have been tragic if it had tasted any better. The
white, which I tried for experience's sake, was actually
somewhat better, a not so eminent Cheninlike substance,
fruity enough. Despite having a light chill on it when it was
poured, it warmed to room temp by the time I got to the end
of it five minutes later. It was truly hot and muggy out.
Though the coupons had said beer or wine, the bartender would
not give out beer (hence the white wine), so I paid for a bottle
of Royal stout, a Carlsberg product, not bad, very dark and
malty and said to be 8% alcohol. Recommended over most of what
is available (Tiger or Carlsberg lager).
