I need more ice cream

This is a short and sweet entry this week, predominantly about cold desserts.

On Saturday, we went to the Little Cube for dinner. After this we went to Milano Gelato for dessert.

While I should tell you about the Little Cube, thanks for the recommendation Chris, and its wonderful food. I should mention the amazing Pork dish we had, that the only part of the name I remember was pork cube… and a quickish search on google later, the braised pork cubes were amazing. They melted in my mouth. The beautiful blend of pork, potato and chili oil is also something I should mention, but won’t.

Nor will I mention the marinated pig’s ears. How wonderfully spicy they were, and the great flavour of each part as I crunched through the cartilage.

That would not be about frozen dessert.

Nor would the cucumber and garlic in chili oil. Nor how great this was. To us it was the most unique thing we had, but you don’t need to know that. That sometimes simple things blend into delightful flavours, is also a thing you don’t need to know.

What I should talk to you about is frozen desserts.

About gelato or ice cream.  Cheesecake or ice blocks.

In this case it is gelato, which followed the meal I won’t tell you about. The spicy squid, which I shall now fail to mention. The fact that it was well cooked is irrelevant. As I also fail to mention this particularly succulent squid dish was also sizzling.

The gelato I had was three flavours. Chocolate, Coffee and Salted Caramel.

As you will notice neither of those three flavours was chicken, like the fifth dish I am regretfully not telling you about from the Little Cube. The chicken dish, which was probably ok in its own right, but was overshadowed by the braised pork cubes. I will not tell you that while it was ok, the flavour combination was indeed very similar to the braised pork cubes, and as such meant every mouthful was compared to said dish.

The gelato was good, and while I am aware I didn’t talk about it very much, I shall now disappear into my kitchen in search of a cold dessert.

 

Eat well, and mysteriously.
