Frozen treats are suitable anytime, anywhere, on any occassion, and for any reason. According to Wikipedia, ice cream have been around since 400BC!
A few years ago, gelato (Italian word for ice cream) had been introduced to New Zealand, and had been a huge hit ever since.
iStorm Gelato & Espresso is a small ice cream shop situated in the busy and high end Chancery street of the Auckland CBD. If you're into trying out weirdly unique flavours and East Asian style treats, be assured that you can find all these things in this little shop.

Cafe Rhythm, Parnell
If you're like me and like to go food exploring, trying out all sorts of things, then Cafe Rhythm is surely a place you'd want to put on your 'places to try out' list.
Parnell Village is such a popular spot for both tourists and locals, not only filled with high end products, but here you will also find some of the most iconic cafes and shops, along with the infamous old phone booth. However, all these can be easily seen on the main road of Parnell, thus easily passing, or perhaps not even knowing, about the existence of the hidden treasures located within the area.

Moo Chow Chow, Ponsonby
In my mind, Ponsonby always gave me the impression that it was a long street filled with cafes and bars, and at the end of the day is only the start of an unforgettable night of fun.
To some people, more like myself, I think the Ponsonby area can be described in a few simple characteristics: cafes, bars, high end retail stores, and the one or two really famous restaurants. Little did I know, it turns out that Ponsonby street is packed with many ethnic and exotic restaurants that will give your taste buds a real surprise! Moo Chow Chow was a place that really stimulated my taste sense.

Cheuk Hong Kong Style Cafe, Dominion Road
Since the first post was a European style cafe and desserts, I thought this time it would be nice to post about Eastern style desserts.
Cheuk Cafe is a small Hong Kong style cafe located on the busy Dominion Road. Although very distinctive inside, the cafe itself is very easily missed. As you are getting closer to the address, be sure to drive a bit slower to save you the effort of turning the car back round.
With the mass amount of photos of the foods and desserts they made as well at their menu all collaged on their window piece by piece, the cafe on the outside somehow can always be mistaken to be closed or even mistaken as an empty store space! So please do scroll down at the end of the post to make sure you get the right address and their opening days and hours so you don't miss out.
