La Creperie


I've always walked by La Creperie in Shang Mall, but I never got around to trying it.  Late last year, I saw IG pics from friends that it had opened a branch in San Juan.  I honestly had no idea where in San Juan.

So to my delight, it was right beside Toribox!  We just had dinner there and I convinced my Panget to try out La Creperie.  The main reason was not because I wanted to try it finally (since walking by it for years) but because of an IG pic of their Frozen Hot Chocolate on my friend Sab's feed.

I have to be honest, after watching the movie Serendipity (Kate Beckinsdale & John Cusak) I became curious on this place called Serendipity 3 that served the famous Frozen Hot Chocolate.  I HAD to be curious, because isn't it ironic to serve a frozen 'hot' chocolate?  I also saw this drink being featured on Oprah (she was raving about it and FYI a cocoa mix of this is being sold on Amazon!)

And so, there we had our dessert.  I ordered the Frrrozen Hot Chocolate and them some crepes.


I liked the Frrrozen Hot Chocolate, maybe because it was sweet.  My Panget said it was too sweet for him, but I liked it!  I am no choco expert, I used to hate chocolate - remember?  But this one, I like!  I'm sure some will say that its not the 'real' hot choco, blah blah - but I liked it!  The crepes we ordered were just okay.  I was actually expecting it to be wonderful because the interiors looked good!  But I guess - the interiors compensated the so-so taste.

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!! I studied in a Chinese school where we only get less than an hour of Chinese class daily.  When you think about it, well - one hour a day, should be okay - but the problem is, at that time - it was pure memorization.  The books that we used, were those traditional books that I honestly have no idea what is written in them.  I see Chinese characters and they're just that - Chinese characters without meaning, nothing.  It was not practical if you ask me.  The words we were taught were not used in everyday conversation It was only during my 3rd or 4th year of high school that I realized how important knowing how to speak Chinese was.  It was during a trip to the Chinese border from Hong Kong that while I was going around the mall, I was having a hard time communicating with people who looked like me.  I wa...
