Come On, Be A Couch Potato With Ben & Jerry's

Hi Huneybees,

It was pouring that day, but nothing can stop me and my friend - Cindy from having a little fun at Ben & Jerry's ChunkFest 2013. Held at The Promontory @ Marina Bay, I had a media preview of what's the latest ice cream flavours whilst having an enjoyable weekend.

Along with the usual "wacky" flavours of ice cream that they serve, comes the new flavour - Couch Potato. A companion while you enjoy that movie of yours, slink back into your comfy couch and taste this euphoris sweet and salty combo.

Crunchy potato chips encrusted with chocolate matched with vanilla ice cream and salty caramel swirl are simply a combination of both our favourite snacks. Why not have the best of both worlds while we watch the telly?

What's more, you are simply doing some good with every bite as the ingredients used in making this new flavour are all from farmers who received a fair price for their harvest. In return, Fairtrade farmers are able to carry out environmentally sound farming practices and invest in their communities from the Fairtrade premium they earn!

So, back to the Chunk Fest, I also got to taste 2 exclusive flavours from US. They were Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Peaches & Cream. If you are fans of  having chunks of chewy bites in your ice cream, these 2 would be great choices.

 

Of course, we also got to taste more ice creams - Karamel Sutra, Red Velvet Cake and Chocolate Peppermint Crunch. These were sold by the pint that day, so I was thankful that there were so may people sharing the tub with us. 

My favourite have got to be the Red Velvet Cake. Nothing short of the cake flavour, this is definitely a choice of ice cream for the cake lovers and those who love unique ice cream flavours.

Thank you Ben & Jerry's for the invite that day.

I'm in fact a converted Couch Potato now!

You can get the all new Ben & Jerry's Couch Potato ice cream at major supermarkets, convenience stalls and scoop shops now at recommended retail price of S$13.90!

Mother’s Day Special Promotion

(Family Sharing Platters)

French Family Meat Platter --- $48.80

This is a combination of Pan-fried Duck Confit, Crispy Pork Belly, AUS Wagyu Beef Rump, Roasted Pork Ribs with Sides - Roasted Wild Mushrooms, Roasted Potatoes & Green Leaf Salad.

I would recommend this to the meat loving family. The portion's not very big though. It's a little more for 2, but I like the idea of getting to taste everything without having to spend big. I love the Wagyu Beef Rump most. It pretty much melts in the mouth, and the special marination, really tantalizes my taste buds!

Greek XXL Seafood Platter --- $49.80

Mixed Seafood Platter with Butter Grilled King Crab, Salmon Head, Sea Bass, Sea Bream, Snapper, Blue Mussels, Fresh Live Prawns with Braised Tomato Aubergine, Watercress Salad and Mash Potato.

Seriously say hello to the Meditteranean Sea with this dish. All of the sea's finest is already here, it's so fresh, you can literally taste the sea... There's so many types of fishes to choose from and for prawn fans like me, you will love the fleshy and Fresh Live Prawns. One other thing that I like is the Mash Potato. Although it's not he main dish, but I couldn't stop eating and our table at the food tasting ordered for more. :)

Desserts Platter --- $21.90

Come on! Who can resist desserts? End your platters above with the dessert platter of Lychee Rose Panna Cotta, Churros with Chocolate Sauce, Red Velvet Cake, Earl Grey Creme Brulee & Chocolate Brownie and I bet Mummy dearest would be smiling her way out...
