Mom Violy and Carmina’s dining experience at Dean & DeLuca

  Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly.

Activated Charcoal Sundae the New Trend

  The new trend is activated charcoal that we hear people put it in their toothpaste or eat it in powdered form this time they put it in food.  What is activated charcoal?   Activated charcoal is not the same as the charcoal that you use for barbecue.  Activated charcoal is a higher temperature that is filtering material and absorbed commonly used for medicine. Now people are adding activated charcoal inside the food the Black Mascarpone is from  Black Scoop Cafe located in the Philippines it is something I wanted to try.

I had like how it had taste just something to get use too.
