Nitrogen Ice Cream at Zenses

So so geeky! Thus, this restaurant deserves a post. 😀 There’s also a Plurk thread discussing reactions.

——-

So Anton Diaz asked me out on a date. Don’t worry — it wasn’t a HOT date. It was actually pretty cold. More than 100 degrees below zero cold.

We were both a little early for a meeting so after editing my last slide, Anton huddled me down to the next door restaurant – Zenses Neo Shanghai Cuisine. It really didn’t strike my eye at first as a place that had great ice cream and drinks. But Anton is pretty good at sniffing these places out, so I tagged along for some nitrogen powered ice cream.

Chef OJ is an applied physics major who really dresses for the occasion. I just had to take photos and write this down for everyone else to try. The place has been open since October 2008. If you want to know the details of our Osmanthus Ice Cream (P480.00 for two orders) and the Zenses Sweater (P240.00) which Anton ordered, check out his detailed review.

As for me, I just wanted to shoot! Check these out:

Hi, Jayvee! What a coincidence — I just met you through Leah at Basty’s last week, and since then I’ve seen you twice on Anton’s blog! Manila is miniscule, indeed. Anyway, just wanted to say “hello.” 🙂
