by. Dolvin ≈ May 6, 2011

As you know in Grand Indonesia West Mall 5th Floor, there is Magnum Cafe

Cafe that provides a menu which varies according to your taste, elegant and down to earth, and of course ice cream creations that "collaborated" uniquely with other foods will result in profound and memorable delights.

Now Magnum is once again created something unique. ^^

To celebrate the launch of Magnum Ecuador and Ghana ice creams, The eccentric designer has created 'The Magnum Chocolate Hotel Suite', which are made entirely of chocolate, specially selected cocoa beans sourced from Rainforest Alliance Certified farms in Ecuador and Ghana.

Using 10.5 tonnes of chocolate it includes a chocolate sculpture of French male model, Karl's muse, Baptise Giabiconi, draped seductively on the chocolate bed.

Speaking about the hotel suite - which was created with French master chocolatier Patrick Roger - Karl said: "It has been an absolute pleasure to design the Magnum Chocolate Suite. My idea was to flirt with a mix of modern and traditional French influences to create something remarkable."

Patrick added: "What is important is precision, exactness and that's also why I decided to join forces with Karl because it allows us to push our work even further, to be even more precise, and that is priceless."

Karl designed all the elements of the room, which Patrick then sculpted from 10 tonnes of chocolate.

So unique and delicious ya..

A whole new world
by. Dolvin ≈ May 2, 2011

This is an Aladdin theme song..
I dunno why, everytime I hear this song.. I remember one of my friend that likes Disney song very much ^^
suddenly, I miss college time hoho...

A Whole New World

I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world
Don't you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath - it gets better
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be

A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letter
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me
