Selamat Hari Raya to all our Muslim readers. Hope you enjoyed your celebration.
Here's a list of typical cookies you can find in most open houses during Raya celebration.
Kuih Makmur - Cookies filled with crushed peanuts and dusted with icing sugar on top.
Kuih Batik - Chocolate cake with crackers in between.
Kuih Suji - It's like Kuih Makmur without the peanut filling and icing
Cornflakes cookies
Almond chocolate - Chocolate coated cookies with whole almond inside
Pineapple tart
Kuih Siput - It's like Sicilian cannoli but without the fillings
These are the usual cookies you can find during raya visits. Of course there are also the usual chocolate chips cookies, butter cookies, chocolate cookies, etc.
I hope you had a wonderful holiday. 'Til then, have a sweet life.
Alexis's cakes are very nice. I love their Pavlova. The crust melts in my mouth. I suppose the downside of this cake is it is too sweet.

I love their Chocolate Banana Parfait. Inside this cup you'll get to taste chocolate ice cream, cream, cookie crumbs, cornflakes and banana put together. I personally feel it's the cookie crumb that makes the entire cup tastes extraordinarily delicious. Of course... it's much better to eat them all together.
I think the Taiyaki Fish Ice Cream is nothing to shout about. I mean.. it tastes almost the same, green tea ice cream with red bean in the middle covered with waffle. Nothing special, but I still love it. I just have to order this everytime I visit Zanmai.

They have a range of handmade chocolates. Some of it comes in really cute shape, like the pyramid.
I've tried most of their macarons and I simply like the strawberries and cream.
The first macaron on top is their latest addition, French Vanilla.
If you happen to be in the CBD, drop by and grab a box of 4 for about $10. Highly recommended!
*Note : It's at the corner of Elizabeth and Bourke Street. It's the building behind the huge purse.

Lindt, another cafe that you should go if you are a fan of chocolate. They serve really good hot chocolate.
2 macarons for 7 aud, milk chocolate and strawberry macaron. If you are not willing to pay so high for macarons, you might want to go to GPO at Bourke Street (just a street away) and they have great macarons there too, slightly cheaper.
Lindt famous waffle, topped with white chocolate ice cream. Perfect dessert after lunch. I love the chocolate at the side. I personally find Max Brenner's waffle nicer. :)
