DESSERTS AT WHAT IF... OF HERSHEY

In Hershey, Pennsylvania, there is a restaurant called "What If... of Hershey." I know, the name is rather catchy, and would be more when translated to my native tongue, Filipino,"Ano kaya [kung]..."  Hehe!

Anyways, after my first ski-dventure, our group went for dinner at What If. Vince and I have been to this restaurant several times already, and I will make a different post about our previous dining experiences there, but for now I will focus on the sweet treats we had after our exhausting ski-dventure.

Vince and I shared an order of homemade oatmeal shortcake with vanilla ice cream, strawberries and whipped cream. I thought I wasn't going to like it because it looked too sugary to me, plus I'm not really a fan of strawberries, but I was totally wrong. The cake and ice cream weren't too sweet and the strawberries were not too "sour" for my taste buds - it was just palate perfect. I really enjoyed this very attractive sweet thing, and mind you the colors did remind me of my wedding motif.

Oatmeal Shortcake Du Jour

Here are more desserts as ordered by our friends:

Creme Brulee and Profiterol Du Jour

Creme brulee is just about the same as leche flan. Now, I'm not too sure what the whole shebang was with Profitelol Du Jour. I was so engrossed with our oatmeal shortcake that I didn't even bother tasting the Profitelol Du Jour, but it looks like it had some kind of a bread or cake maybe, with chocolate syrup, powdered sugar, almonds, cream, peanut butter or caramel.


Vince may appear in the picture like he was tempted and at the same time stumped as to how to finish that huge dessert in front of him, but don't worry, the dessert was successful in tempting Vince, so as Vince (with a little help from me) was successful in finishing it.  Fair enough!

    Hi KM,

    Tou've made me very hungry! Really enjoyed your blog.

    Quick question. I really liked your 'Grab my badge'. How did you make the picture? and the HTML code? and the widget for your blog? I'd love to do something similar on mine.

    Thanks - Peter

    hahaha, your hubby's face is so funny :D yep, most of the restaurants here serve big dishes. i bet you are in south central part of PA sis? Hershey is close to where my Aunt lives in PA which is in Lancaster. Have you seen Amish people and ride in on one of those buggies already? :D
