For Good times


A friend was browsing through my mobile phone photo gallery and told me in an astound voice, Askandarani, why do you photo your food?

Ice

Was making my normal shopping at metro when I cam across this.

Yes they are selling ice cubes. Never thought I will see the day when they sell ice cubes in Egypt in supermarkets, but the day came.

Didn’t want to chalange his knowledge about the origin of chocolate and coco beans fa just enjoyed the quick tour.

They have miniature factory, a seating area where u can enjoy salads, sandwiches and off course various chocolate based drinks. And they sell chocolates as well, at a rather steep price but worth it.
