Swensen's

Went to Penang Island the other day with Aaron and family. After window shopping at Queensbay Mall, we were a bit tired and wanted to have tea break. Since it was a special occasion (not going to tell what it is...hehe...), so we decided to go for something more "luxurious".

At first we wanted to go for Chili's, but then it was full and we don't want to sit at the smokers area to kill our lungs, so we toured around again to see if there's anything else we could have.

And, we ended up in Swensen's! We ordered 4 dishes...

Coit Tower

Frosted Choc Malt Fantasy

Banana Crumble

Mac 'N' Cheese

I would say it was indeed very luxurious, the ice cream was great ( if not it won't be so famous right?). I personally like the Banana Crumble, very tasty, and the ice cream just didn't melt on the bananas. FYI, the pie was on a sizzling pan! it was scotching hot and yet the ice cream didn't melt instantly. ehhe...they poured a cup of caramel on top of the ice cream and the banana pie, the taste was great even though a bit too sweet. hehe...nice! maybe next time we can go again ya? :)
