Ever since Patrick's email I could not get "cheesecake" out of my head. In fact said cheesecake has been haunting me for 4 days...
Been searching high and low and was told Peninsula has awesome cakes so went over to TST this PM to look for the perfect slice. Got there and they only had chocolate cake and damn fruit tarts left! Doh! But there will be no substitute!
Feeling dejected I came back to HK lsland side and some lazy laps in the pool, all in the while thinking about that elusive baked goodness of cheese, sugar, milk, butter and flour.
I got quite desperate as I know the sun will be setting in a few hours and still empty handed. 4 double vodka shots did cross my mind (same calories..) but having this before sunset on a Sunday may not be the best of ideas.
Finally on way to the bus stop past a cafe with the most delicious slice of pie I have ever seen in the window - calling my name!
As I slowly savored my indulgence, I realized in the past month I have gained much appreciation for food. In particular food I care to spoon into my mouth. Whether it be finding the best available ingredients for pcp meals or searching for that perfect indulgence; taking the time in earning, finding, savoring my food makes eating that much more rewarding and pleasureable.
For those who have seen Harold and Kumar's go to White Castle - you know what I mean.
