Finally, I have make my first move to welly after staying Palmy for a month!
Last friday, well, I wore differently as usual, with my new black girly laced dress and legging, and cool boots to office...
and well, with my bulky tiny backpack too, as I am heading to the bus depart to welly straight away after my office hours... WEEE =P
I was so happy, haha, and left around 5pm and take the public bus back to square, and well was abit struggling to find a dinner option....hmmm....
then I eventually dined in sushi house at broadway avenue, with superb speed, haha, I think the cook is shocked with my ugly eating look =O
but thumbs up for his ultimate fast cooking speed with a delicious taste and appealling dish!
Then, I gone into the naked bus, and discovered that the seat is not adjustable.....darn, I was so tired, but still, able to sleep....
met paya at Wakefield st 2 hours later, and had my second dinner, phew.....the rojak at that Malaysian restaurant is not really great tho....
So the main reason why I am in welly was because of the first chocolate festival in NZ, I was super excited...
so now I will talk about this chocolate fest, so I spent 20 dollars for the entry, and well, I am confident to say: it is very worthy!
There were nearly 30 stalls, and most fancy and unique chocolates were displayed, we had the opportunity to taste approximately 2 pieces in every stall, and we did, as Nicole (a penang gal who I just met) said: we paid for this! True! why not?
here are some photos, but not much as we thought we were not allowed to take photos at first, then when I realized, it was too late....
entry to the chocolate festival (paya was not focused! haha)
the chocolate fest was actually held at inter-continetal hotel function room....suit the way fancy chocolate is...Elegant!
this was how the chocolate displayed, and now u know what i meant, is not just simple commercial chocolate, is all about fancy!
believe me, this is all chocolate!!! wooah!
If you think we were only tasting chocolate at different shop's stall, then you were totally wrong, you wont know how much did you miss out...hehe
There was a chocolate fountain which allowed us to dip in our mashmallow into, and there was chocolate tasting section, the special cook taught us how to taste 5 different types of chocolate in his authentical French accent...now I have learnt, even chocolate has it special way to be tasted.....This give me a great lesson: everything has it unique way to be learnt and appreciated....wooah!
the chocolate fountain!!
and this is 5 pieces of different chocolate given during tasting section, imagine how many times the demonstrator need to eat in order to show the audience the correct way to taste the chocolates...??
besides, there are different demonstration seminar, ya, although is 5 seminar continuously, the topics were totally different!
we actually went to 1 and a half, hehe, cz we missed the begining of the last demonstration, about how to make chocolate dessert with traditional old fashion way vs. with modern speedy way~ and ya, we got the chance to taste all output from the demonstration, yeah!
oooh....nitrogen dioxide? or wat? shit, my chemistry gone worst.....=P well, this is from the demonstration section, and below is the outcome! hehe, homemade raspberries sorbet, with chocolate mousse and chocolate!
you wont know how much chocolate we had in total, until we were so full that we were not able to get dinner, so what a special day, chocolate had filled into my dinner plate 
so, i met janis after my "dinner", and yes, even the pricey slices at Starbuck were not able to appetite me...haha
Captain America in the cinema theater was a very bad decision, cz that movie, indeed, SUCKSSS
well, this called balance ey, life is imperfect, so that we could understand, and appreciate and move forward to our life!
The nite was great at Janis house, we had abit of chat before we slept (dont get me wrong, in different bed!) Janis is a good treater! haha, and we had dimsum (finally) after so DAYS....and I am so falling to it, but actually the food there was not that good, and I still unable to eat alot...guest we need more ppl~
So, this time, I did not manage to get my lovely macarons, but able to buy many chocolates!! (You wont guest how much I spent...=P), and also thanks to janis, bought over 50 dollars grocerries at the Asian stores, the difference between Palmy and welly was so obvious!
Can't wait until the next trip to welly!
