Small things

Hmmm I can't find specific topic. So I just write down small things.

1. My small project
When I just arrived Portland, I hang around Pioneer mall, and I saw Moonstruck chocolate cafe. http://www.moonstruckchocolate.com/
Moonstruck chocolate is originally from Portland :)
I had chocolate milkshake, cafe mocha, and so on... everything is delicious. Yummy.
Then I saw it- it's totally attracts me!
Those chocolates!
Truffles!
UGH!
AWESOME!
And I decided to eat all of Moonstruck chocolates :)
Finally on this weekend, I bought 3 chocolates.

 I chose one extra-bitter chocolate
 Well, I like dark chocolate, so I chose this one and it was wonderful.
There's no impure taste.Pure bitter chocolate! 



 It was sooooooooooooooooooo good.
And the other one is..
 Bailey's Irish Cream Chocolate Truffle and Italia Espresso Chocolate Truffle
Yes, that left one has Bailey's Irish cream :9 But I didn't try yet.
The right one has Italia espresso ganache. Outside was sweet but inside was bitter :9


2. Little Big burger! http://littlebigburger.com/
On Sunday, I went to 23rd with Akiko. Actually I want to go to 'Two tarts cafe', but there was under construction. Nah.
So we went to Little big burger :)
As you see... It's really small..... not BIG. But It's okay. I like it.
They have Cheese burger, Hamburger and Veggie burger.
Today, I ordered Tillamook Cheddar Cheese burger.


AND
Truffle French Fries!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you go to Little big burger, you must try this one. Because it's awesome!
It's not normal french fries.
And they have really good 'Catsup' not 'Ketchup'. Kind a pun!
Also this 'catsup' has different taste than the other normal ketchup.
So they sell their 'catsup' in the store.

3. Salt n straw. http://saltandstraw.com/
After Little big burger, I want something sweet.
So we went to Salt n straw. Usually on the weekend, they have a lot of customers, but today wasn't that much.
This is first time to try this ice cream shop, so I ordered my favorite taste; Strawberry.
However, they don't have normal strawberry taste. But they have 'Honey Balsamic Strawberry with Cracked Pepper.' Wow isn't it long name?
Anyway, I tried sample spoon for this H.B.S.w/P(It's too long to write in whole name)
And it was so good. 
In the Salt n Straw

Wooo. It has interesting taste. At first, it's tart, and then sweet flavors following.... and finally you can meet strawberry. Sometimes surprisingly peppers show up!
It was pretty interesting taste.
If you like adventure, I'd recommend this taste.

How was your weekend?
