The Sweet Temptations

Most of my friends know that I am ON for anything sweet...

A day before I left for Penang, someone sent me an email on the best desserts you can find in Penang. It is called Sweet Temptations...perfect name cos they were really tempting!!

When I browsed through the email, I said to myself.. yes.. yes... YES! I must go and try as many as I can when I'm there....

picture extracted from my email..
captured by a well known food blogger here
hope he will not sue me!!

this was taken by me when I went there
due to my super full dinner earlier,
I couldn't manage to try
as many as I said I would...

just look at the many pots displayed..
how to try all of them.. hahaha...
thank goodness, I often drop by Penang..
in time to come, hopefully I can try all..

And for that evening, I only managed
to try this fabulous bubur cha-cha
Really creamy and santan-ic
with lots of sweet potatoes, yam and sago..
Best!

    The bubur cha-cha is similar to our Guinataan dish in the Philippines. It is cooked with coconut milk with plenty of yam, sweet potatoes, sago, banana, and sometimes even ripe jackfruit.

    Happy Monday!

    Come, Claire... I know how to cha cha... I teach u. Come, come.

    Hmm...the bubur cha cha looks very nice...but I prefer pulut hitam and the red bean tong sui more than bubur cha cha.

    Uh-Oh....you're just like me, sweeeeeeettttt!!! Better be careful, sugar is bad for you. Bad-bad-bad! Everything in moderation, ya? Or a trick I learned for diabetes is whenever you want to eat sugar, make sure you eat triple dose of leafy vegetables (before or after you eat the sugar) and it will neutralise the sugars immediately.
