Cherry Cordial Kisses

I hardly ever write something blatantly negative about a product, but today I tried a Cherry Cordial Kiss and it was so horrible, I just had to warn everyone. It's really sad... I grew up on Hershey's Kisses and loved them. The almond ones were pretty good too. Now there are so many varieties and variations, it's confusing! And certainly not appetizing (Pumpkin spice Kisses? Seriously??!). Most of you out there are probably clever enough to NOT buy Hershey's Kisses flavored like Cherry Cordial, and I should have also paid attention to that instinct. But no, I gave in. And instead I was left with a mouthful of waxy, poor quality chocolate meets cherry Tylenol.

No, I'm not kidding.


There are some very awesome candies out there during the holiday season, but I have to say this is just not one of them.

No, it's not an oxymoron. Amar really wanted to go to one of these for his birthday, so off we went. I have to say, I couldn't eat much of what was on the table, so I'm not sure if it was good. The two things that I did eat, eggplant w/ a spicy sauce and sesame onion bread, only the latter was really something I'd want to eat again.
Anyway, I'll post my pictures from the meal, and you can decide!

Sesame Onion bread --- sort of like a thicker, breadier onion kulcha

Lamb Stew, a house specialty
