  • Tastes of the Unexpected

7th October 2011

tea flavoured biscuits, cakes, creams, chocolates...but not coffees.

Just a few new flavours springing up and hitting the mainstream…

Charcoal flavoured desserts and more tea...

Pig meets it's gold. Lard- food of miners infused with Truffle -food of kings. Who'd have thought?

The easy way to get your tobacco fix...and chocolate hit at the same time...oh and more tea flavoured chocolate for a chaser.

I have no clue what Christmas Crackling tastes like but i think it may involve the pig...most Zotter chocolate seems to sneak in some bacon or scratchings somewhere in the mix.

Instead of having a curry. Garlic beer - drink and food in one. Kebab flavour will soon follow. You heard it here first...;)

Borges immortalized a city block in his poem “Buenos Aires”:

A general store pink as the back of a playing card
shone bright; in the back there was poker talk.
The corner bar flowered into life as a local bully,
already cock of his walk, resentful, tough.

At the corner of Guatemala and Borges the general store still stands. It is as solid and poker-deck pink as ever. Most everything else in this neighborhood has changed. If there was ever real-life retro-chic but unintentionally, this is it!

I would actually scream if i had to sit in one of these ice cream vans and wait for the one solitary customer who might just happen upon a potential ’99 or dollop of soft scoop only to see it melt almost immediately…just bad news all round!

Not 1 but 2 vans side by side competing for business...


Maybe not the best location for such rivals
