I came to Chock Full of Beans for my dinner and I am carving their truffles fries too. So I went to order truffle fries, aglio olio with prawns and squid, hazelnut chocolate and drunken pineapple.
Their truffle fries is heaven as it has a strong truffle smell but it doesn't have very strong truffle taste of it. There is Parmesan cheese on it for extra cheese flavor. You just can't have enough of truffle fries if you try it!
Aglio olio with prawns and squid is nice as the spaghetti has an unique taste and light taste, the squid and prawns is tender too! You just can't resist on how tender they are! They also have slight peppery and sweet taste on the pasta and the ingredients.
When I just got my hazelnut chocolate, the first thing I saw was a character named Chihiro from Spirited Away. I'm not sure if you guys have watched it, but I think Spirited Away is quite a nice show.
I find that hazelnut chocolate is quite nice as there is hazelnut taste blend into the chocolate, and it is not too sweet too. Some places I go, the hazelnut chocolate is too sweet or I can't really taste the hazelnut at all.
Drunken pineapple is my dessert of the day. It smell like a sweet pineapple with slight alcohol, but at some point it doesn't smell like alcohol. My sense of smell is confused by the dessert. Due to the slight alcohol smell, this dessert does contain rum in it.
The taste of the ice cream with coconut flakes is:
- sweet coconut flavored ice cream, but not overly sweet
- very fragrant coconut flakes
- coconut flakes does not cover the ice cream's flavor
The pineapple base:
- does not have the sting on your tongue
- does not have much pineapple flavor than raw ones
- totally goes well with the ice cream as the ice cream will make the pineapple sweet
- does not have alcohol flavor (to me)
I find this place is expensive, but everything is worth to pay for. What you pay is what you get applies on this shop!
