Heaven Sent

Darn, though Nigel's new shop is just minutes away from my office, I never get to visit it till last Wednesday. For the past few weeks, I have been dreaming of Nigel's durian choc while char siew bao was dreaming of his piece of death by chocolate. Enough of the torturing, we decided to sneak out during lunch time for that heaven sent dessert.


We bought banana cream pie, creme caramel and death by choc. What about the durian choc? Yeah...thanx to joe who grabbed the last piece of durian choc from Nigel's display case as well as the last piece from cafe & brew (opposite Nigel's shop) @_@ I'll be back, hmp!

So I brought all the desserts back to my office, kept them in the fridge and waited patiently...Didn't bring my camera mar, the initial plan was to take pics of them when i got back.

So the clock ticks......Then I heard this strange voice coming out from the pantry : 'Eat me....Eat me...I'm heavenly tasty...'
Yeah...resistance is futile, I told myself I can always take pics the next time...the banana cream pie and creme caramel disappeared in seconds :)

Till 7pm when I got back, I showed char siew bao the almost empty box. Luckily his piece of death by choc still survived.

To show you how delicious is that piece of devil choc dessert...
Char siew bao said he was nearly sent to the heaven.
See wmw's review for direction.
