Mochiko Mochi :)

Yesterday was only one of my many non-diverse days. I was only out with wanderingV, Maycon, because she has to pay her bills and i need to get a rush birthday gift for my god daughter, who I'm visiting in Mindoro tomorrow. 

Mega Mall's our stop. Upon finishing our errands, we still checked a boutique sale like Forever21's. On our way out of the mall, we stopped by a store standing in the middle of the bridge way area of the mall's 2nd floor. We've been seeing this for the longest time now and have been ignoring it as well, though in my mind "what's that?" It was only after yesterday that we were able to try it since Maycon's curiousity did get the best of her.

Mochi is a Japanese delicacy made out of rice flour, mochiko. Mochiko actually serves as the upfront coating. It is chewy like a mashed dough. Inside a Mochi is some sweet center, which is anko, or red bean paste and eaten as a snack, but Mochiko, the store itself, made it more exceptional by infusing new flavors and fillings into mochi.

Their best sellers, as per the lady we bought the mochi from, and who also pointed us to these mochis with plate numbers, are Red Velvet, Oreo and Milk and Cookie Dough. I don't know if that's their mark for best sellers but she said "Our best sellers are those that with numbers." I recall.

Before drooling takes us over as we look into the Mochis inside the glass covered freezer, we made our choice to Oreo and Milk Mochi. We only bought 1 since, aside from it's a bit pricey at 70php a piece, we only want to try it in our mouth.

And though it's mostly observed as costly, I take it you will know why it is what it is in terms of price once you've given yourself a chance to try it. Our 70php, which we divided into two (haha), was not put to waste. Aside from it's really delightful in the mouth, you're never deceived in quantity and quality. The Mochi's inside is thick and compact with their A lister ice cream goodness and flavor, which is Oreo in this case.
