Today is Lulu’s pâtissier friend Adriano Zumbo’s “Zumboron” day. Every year Adriano celebrates his birthday by baking up around 60 types of crazy flavour of macarons.

Last year he had Fish & Chips, Tabaccoroon, Toothpaste, Sichuan pepper etc….This year is even more crazy – Fried Chicken, Salt & Pepper Calamari, Banh Mi Burger macarons.

Believe it or not, they taste quite yummy and it is like eating a savory snack with a hint of sweetness.

Both Fried Chicken and Salt & Pepper Calamari are crunchy as you can tell from their look. The Fried Chicken one tastes like grill chicken with herb stuffings and the Banh Mi Burger one tastes like McDonald’s cheeseburger!

Lulu arrived pretty late and missed out a couple of interesting ones – Margarita pizza, ramen and Green apple pie…

Lulu’s foodie friend Lily’s choice was relatively “conservative”  (Haha) – Pandan & Coconut, Passionfruit & yoghurt, Blueberry lavender and Salted butter caramel.

Still have Blackened Vanilla and Peach Ice Tea in the box and can’t wait to try them tomorrow.
