Spicy Challenge

The excitement of having new challenges and surpassing it as well is beyond compare.

I never considered myself as a lover of hot and spicy foods. It could probably be the least food that I wish to have on my death bed. However, with my recent visit to Tagbilaran City, Bohol, I never missed the opportunity  to try one of the city’s delicacy and pride, the Buzz Organic ice cream. 

The cafe’s organic ice cream brings a variety of flavours- from their classic chocolate, ube, mango, vanilla, buko, durian and avocado to some unique or peculiar flavours of malunggay (moringa), dragonfruit, jackfruit, pandan and spicy ginger. 

Spicy Ginger

Malunggay Flavor

Variety of flavors

What caught my attention was the malunggay flavour and of course, the unique spicy ginger. 

The malunggay flavour taste creamy with a taste of a bit of malunggay. Yes, it was really malunggay, alright! It was so sweet and creamy that even a three-year old kid can finish an entire cone of it. However, when I tried the spicy ginger flavour, wow oh wow! It was some kind of tangy, hot and spicy. At first, I told myself, “Kaya lang Che, carry mo lang yung anghang.” But then, when I consumed about half of the big scoop, it was the time when I can really taste the “luya”. I felt that I was actually chewing ginger! I felt like throwing up. It was so spicy that I can’t even identify any flavour aside from it. But I still manage to consume more, until I can no longer take it and I said, “D ko na kaya!” So I placed the remaining thumb-sized ice cream on my plate.

It was one great experience that I had in Tagbilaran. The spicy ginger flavored ice cream is indeed a must-try for every tourist in Bohol.

I can hardly believe that I consumed (well, almost) the spicy ginger flavored ice cream. But I did. 

Hurray!

Everything is  possible.
