I love chocolate fountain and fondue, and I wish I could have them everyday! Anything with chocolate can always put a smile on my face. Just today, I ate Selecta Cornetto's newest variant, White Chocolate, which is just LOVE. White Chocolate is so much better than vanilla. On some days I feel like indulging myself for some deliciously sinful yet heavenly treat, I head to Haagen Dazs. The first Fondue was from their store in SM Mall of Asia, and the second was from their store in SM Megamall (which I think is already closed).
The Fondue in SM Mall of Asia looked so perfect. Just look at the chocolate dip with that floral pattern! So pretty.
Of course, this is my favorite thing to dip in the thick, hot chocolate sauce. Thin layers of warm chocolate solidify when they come into contact with these slow-melting ice cream balls. It comes in 4 delectable flavors: Macadamia, Strawberry, Cookies & Cream, and Coffee.
This part made me a bit sad, because there was no brownie in it. Instead, there were cookies (which I think is Chips Ahoy, the local kind with less chips), Stik-O (could have been more fancy), and big mallows.
This is the healthy part of the Fondue, but I only liked the bananas because I found the green apples and kiwi sour. However, I loved that the fruits were fresh, especially the crisp apples.
And here, some pictures of their SM Mall of Asia store. It's big and spacious, but open. I like that it's clean and quiet here.
This was the second Fondue that I had, this time with my family. We ordered this in SM Megamall, but note the differences between both Fondues:
With regards to the ingredients, we liked this version better than the Fondue served in SM Mall of Asia because we felt that they were more premium. (The chocolate flower in the dip of this one is not perfect though, and it contained less chocolate.) We liked their SM Mall of Asia branch's service better, because in their SM Megamall store, it took years and countless follow-ups before we were served water, even if there was no one in line.
Each order of Fondue is approximately P960.00 for dine in (service charge included). It's good for 3-4 people. Indulge!
Love,
Helen

- Peaches instead of bananas and kiwi
- Moist, chewy brownies instead of cookies
- Chocolate sprinkles instead of nuts

i love kiwi.
ReplyDeleteBut it's sour! :P I like sweet fruits better. :D
DeleteI would prefer brownies over mallows too :) You're lucky, everytime we pass by Haagen Dazs in MOA it's always full. Will try to go there when it's not the weekend. Haha!
ReplyDeleteOh my bad, it's supposed to be brownies over cookies. We went there on a Wednesday afternoon and had the place all to ourselves. :)
Deletehaagen dazs! my favorite!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite are still the more affordable but yummy ones. :D
DeleteOh wow, will definitely visit here when we go to MOA. That's happiness in a small fountain.:)
ReplyDeleteI agree! Enjoy your visit. :)

DeleteI was in Haagen Dazs MOA the other day! Haha.. I haven't tried their fondue yet though. But one of these days, I will.. :)
ReplyDeleteYey! Looking forward for when you'll write about it too, I like your foodie posts! :)
DeleteI have tried eating ice cream from Haagen Dazs and the price was just ridiculously high. But the fondue seems to be more reasonable. I might give 'em another try..
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way too! P175 for a scoop? Nah! :))
DeleteI've been stalking their SM MOA and SM Megamall branches for quite sometime as I just had to convince my wife to try this with me. ^_^
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your food tripping! :D

ReplyDeleteOo! Gusto ko rin yung coffee. :)
DeleteThis is a kind of big indulgence :D
ReplyDeleteShared with family or friends makes the experience more worth it. :)
Deleteanother fondue?! been seeing this all week long.. maybe it's a sign... a sign that I should get some :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a delicious sign! :D
DeleteThis looks really yummy! :) Haven't tried Haagen Dazs yet, too pricey for me. Heehee. But they say it's worth it, I'm just not too sure. :)
ReplyDeleteI'd say it's too pricey too, pero minsan lang naman. :)
Deletehi. i stumbled upon your blog while researching about haagen-dazs. do you happen know if the moa branch offers the ice cream buffet like the one in megamall? i heard closed na daw yung sa mega eh :(
ReplyDeleteHi, Vin! I'm not sure if they also have the same promo (like the eat all you can ice cream) like SM Megamall since I've been to their SM MOA branch once. I think their SM Megamall branch is already closed, because when we went there for this fondue, there was a notice at the door saying that they will be closed the next day, and that was February pa.
DeleteClosed na po ata yung Haagen dazs sa moa . San pa po ba ang alam niyo ? Thanks =)
ReplyDeleteI think all their stores are closed. Sa supermarkets nalang yata sila available. :)
