    Smile Hello!!

    Hi I thought I would try this out and see if someone could possilby assist me finding Ube ice cream. I've just visited the motherland and it has been over 30 years since I was back where I was born. The food was just excellent. Ube ice cream was the icing on top and I am wondering if there is any possibility that I can find it in London.

    Anyone's advice or suggestions is very much appreciated.

    Cheers

    Mike

    PS. I can't speak Tagalog or Cebuano. I will try to learn before heading back to the Philippines next year.

    Thanks for the advice...I did that but no luck but a restaurant in London was the closest place to get Ube ice cream. I want to get it in a grocery store or super market but no joy.

    Do they make Ube at the pinoy ice-cream place near the train station in ashford



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    ... there you go, mate! My friend's helpfulness proves ... yet again ... that NO request for help is ever considered too "insignificant" for our members to come up trumps. Glad we were able to oblige. Welcome to our midst, enjoy the experience ... and, of course, your ube! :lol2:

    I remember during my first sojourn to the Phils, asking Myrna: "What's that 'purple stuff?' :lol2: ... is it better than Viagra?"
