Starbucks Pastries


Starbucks is Jack's favorite coffee chain. Every week, a visit to anyone of it's many outlets is normal. Naturally, I would try some of it's pastries, some are really good, some sinful..some just plain bad... so here's my first take on some of the pastries...

1)Mango Cheese Cake
The look of this fellow just begs to be purchased and tried.

Basically, cheese cake, with Mango flavor. It's not too "cheesy" and thick, just about nice for the taste. However, the mango flavour could be a little stronger. 1 piece shared between 2 person is just nice.

2)Ugly Chicken Puff
It is indeed ugly. It's one of the ugliest "puff" I have came across.

When you cut it open, mixed pieces of chicken meat and potato greets you. The whole puff tasted dry, especially the chicken pieces. The taste is a little too blant for my "salty" taste. It's a big puff, thick crust, but inner beauty is lacking.

3)Cinnamon Roll
This "snail" looking cinnamon rolls looks tempting, shinning and "smart" looking.

It's obviously tasted of Cinnamon(duh!), however, it's a little dry. Each bite will need to be accompanied with either coffee or tea. You will probably craving for drinks after eating this...

Perhaps there wasn't quality control in the ugly chicken puff...but i love it to the bits the last time i had it! Both me and my coffee-mate agreed that it is ugly on the outside but much prettier within.
