So much for new taste adventures.
I've always looked up to my big sister Nadine, as she became my stepping stone to acquire interest on and pursue writing (she was a journalist at Quezon City Science HS back in her days). And somehow I wanted to follow her adventurous food trip and her universal principle of always trying something new.
After watching Atty. Vincent Tanada's (by the way, he just won Best Stage Director for his musicale "Enzo...Santo" at the 23rd Aliw Awards) 4-C Part II at SM North Edsa last November 28, my twin sister Jillian and I decided to have dinner at the food court and ordered Chili Lime Chicken (P91) at KFC. I've always envied Ate Nadine (having been always updated to food menus) because she said the chicken really tastes like lime, and I've always been fond of sour cuisines. The chicken did impress me with that sweet-sour hint of lime at first bite, and only noticed its sharp chili taste after I ate it with hot rice.
I've also noticed the chicken's chili lime flavor only covered its outer part, and not much on the meat itself. Even so, we enjoyed it as I never dipped the chicken to the gravy to savor the chili-lime taste.

I then suggested to Jillian we check out Caveman and Yeti's shaved ice cream, located at the third floor of the Main Mall (we passed by it before the play as we got lost to where Cinema 9 could be). I also remembered my mentor Ms. Josephine Bonsol saying Caveman and Yeti is a new experience of shaved ice cream.
We ordered a regular Mango-go-go (P68) with additional toppings of ube pastillas and nata de coco (P20), and sesame mochi buns (P28/2pcs.). Jillian especially liked the hot, soft mochi buns and the ube pastillas on the refreshing ice cream.
Caveman and Yeti is different from other ice cream franchises because it offers shaved ice cream better chomped and enjoyed especially during summer days. They also have this exciting Make-Your-Own shaved ice cream (P108) I believe children and childish people will enjoy and come back more.
Other flavors include Strawberry Heart, Choco Nilla, Banana Choco, Mais con Yeti, Ube Mungster, Choco Nutty, Banana Nut.
Just when it comes to food, two people always update my taste buds and share me what they enjoyed eating: of course, my Ate Nadine who's always taking home cakes, desserts and pizza after she received her salary. Famous food and lifestyle blogger Ms. Josephine Bonsol also shares with me her latest foodtrip rolls at times, and I would always check he blog as well. What I really looked up to her was even though she has eaten expensive and first-rate delicacies at fine dining, she would still and always crave for street foods in the end.
