Chikalicious Puddin'

So one random night, I had a sudden crave for desserts. Fortunately enough, around St. Marks, there are a ton of nice lil dessert places. In the second edition of Indian Vogue, I came across an article about Japanese dessert eateries. One of them was Chikalicious, which turned out to be a petite lil dessert restaurant on 10th Street. After reading many reviews, I discovered that across from it, the same owners opened another dessert store, Chikalicious Puddin', where Puddings were the main focus. The store is a tiny boutique where an nice Indian man takes your order.

Since, my roommate and I previously purchased a few cakes from Blackhound. We settled on shortbread cookies instead. They were lemon poppy seed shortbread cookies, they came in a tiny box (above). Priced at $10, but I was curious, after reading the reviews, so we got them. The cookies were good. Worth the money? I don't know. I've yet to try the puddings though.

Sabon

To start off, my first official post will be about SABON.

Sabon is this awesomelicious body care store. Lotions, Bath/Shower Gels,Scrubs,Candles, Soaps, Facial Care Products, Body Oils...etc. The best part of this store, is when you go in they have a stone basin at the back of the store, where you can try out their products, usually a scrub and then a lotion. That's one sole reason why I love going into that store, every single time that I leave, I leave with AMAZZZZINGLY soft and smooth hands! =]

Their products are all natural and made in Israel. And they don't test on animals. Buying their products make me happy. And they come in the really nice scents. I'm currently using their mud mask (minerals from the Dead Sea), Carrot Body Lotion and Lavender Apple Salt Scrub. Do yourself a favor and check them out!
