Nadeje : Green Tea Mille Crepe

Nadeje is a cake shop in Malacca famous for its mille crepe which comes in an assortment of flavours like Mango, Coffee, Green Tea and The Original. My dear hubby was on a road trip with his friends some time back and brought back several flavours of  Mille Crepe. Imagine my sheer delight on seeing them and all were so good - soft, moist and delicious.

Non Entree Desserts : Matcha Avalanache

Francis Wong, an ex-sous pastry chef from Regent Singapore, started Non Entree Desserts with his 2 friends, to provide fine dining desserts at reasonable prices for the masses.

When I first heard about its desserts, I thought the place would be alittle "atas" so imagine my surprise, when I found myself stepping into this spacious and laid-back enclave. A great place to chill with friends as one indulged in beautiful desserts.

Matcha Avalanache ( $13.90, excluding GST ) belongs to their Avalanache series where it consists of chocolate, matcha and horlicks ( non permanent ) flavours.

It was a natural choice for me to pick the Matcha Avalanache although it includes Azuki Beans which I am not a fan of. I requested for it to be excluded but the dessert still came with the Azuki Beans. So being a nice person, I just took it without much fuss.

It was a visual treat to see the dessert, where the matcha from the warm and moist lava cake on top of a honeycomb waffle will drip into a glass bowl of a scoop of gelato and some edible flowers below, once you sliced it open.

It was a little pricey but for the novelty factor and the visual treat, it was worth a visit. The Matcha Avalanache was not bad but can be perfect without the azuki beans as I am not a fan of that.

Korean Drama : Memory

Park Tae-seok, a successful and famous attorney suddenly was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. And he was asked to become an attorney for the future Hangook Hospital's chairman, on the recommendation of a vice president of the renowned company, Shin Yeong-jin. During the handling of the case, he also had to hide the fact that he had Alzheimer's disease. The drama depicts his vigorous efforts trying to protect the precious value of the life and family love, while his memory starts fading away.

Lee Sung Min puts in a fine performance, as the lead actor in Memory, executing all his raw emotions perfectly from being an arrogant and unscrupulous attorney to his inner turmoil and pain on losing his first son, to being shocked on finding out his illness, to start being good to his family, to being lost and confused on the streets and to be desperately searching for his son's killer. 

Kim Ji-soo starred as Lee Sung Min's long suffering wife who devotes her life to supporting the family as a dutiful wife and a caring mother, never once giving up on the wayward son and the disappointing hubby, both of whom later turned around to be the best family one can have. 

Lee Jun Ho and Yoon So Hee are the subordinates of Lee Sung Min in the show and provides a nice distraction to the plot. They work tirelessly and carry out their duties according to what their boss requires, for every legal case. They later fall in love, to the amusement of Lee Sung Min who has long suspected that they have something going on between each other. 

Granted, when I first heard about this show, "Remember" immediately comes to mind, because both dramas talk about losing their memories and with both lead actors being lawyers and fighting for a chance to present their cases in the midst of their losing memories. 

But, Memory surpassed Remember in every aspect. Memory had me in tears in Every. Single. Episode. It is that emotional wrenching. I can't tell you how much I love this show. The last time I remembered about crying so much over a drama was 1 Litre of Tears, a Japanese drama where I found myself going to work with red and swollen eyes after a night of crying. 

The OST is hauntingly sad and teary which fits the story perfectly. Tears rolled down, each time they are played on my playlist. 

A must-watch drama. And get your tissues ready.
