We went out for dinner last night as a special treat. Julian and I indulged in three sharing plates of pork belly, wagyu beef and scallops. We ended with two super indulgent desserts of Moo Brew Vanilla Panna Cotta with Brandy Snaps, and a Caramel Brick.
After their kids meals, Holly had ice cream with caramel topping and sprinkles. Ella had a pre-packaged tasteless jelly cup.
Everyone tried a little of everyone else’s dessert. Julian and I tried Holly’s mushed up ice cream, followed by Ella’s wobbly red jelly, oohing and aahhing as if it they were the most devine foodie experiences ever.
Ella, quite thoughtfully, finally piped up with: “mine is by far the best dessert here’’, looking at us with pity in her eyes. That’s kids’ tastebuds for you.
It was a win in her book.
OK, onto some more wins.

Ooooh, your dinner sounds so good! Kids’ tastes are so funny. My boys will always choose something that makes me cringe then scoff at my divine choice!
Hehe!! That’s hilarious, Kate!
In reality, it’s probably better that way. The jelly was all of $2.95. Our desserts were MUCH more! 🙂
That caramel brick is insane!! Sounds like a scrumptious night out 🙂
It was, Lara. I made sure I had a try! 😉
It’s nice to spoil yourself every now and again. I’m just looking forward to the next time now…
Oooo that sounds so good! We rarely go out for dinner, so sad! Maybe one day when Miss S will sit still for more then 30 seconds. I love Ella’s response though, sounds just like Miss C would say!
It was well worth it, Kym. The restaurant we went to gave the girls a heap of crayons to draw on the table – covered with paper! And the meals came out quickly. Definitely a place to take the kids back to, that’s for sure. 🙂
Oh that sounds so very yummy! We love desserts in our house – actually if we could eat them instead of dinner we would!
Love how much Kids prefer Jelly to other desserts 🙂
Hehe!! Oh, I’m with you there, Lisa.
Holly doesn’t seem to like jelly. I’m not sure why. Yes, strange child. LOL! 😉 Ella, on the other hand….
