If you think you have seen ginormous and impossible-to-finish-in-one-sitting halo-halo, think again. The Lobby of The Peninsula Manila serves the biggest and the grandest of all halo-halo. Mainly due to its enormous size, The Lobby’s Halo-halo Harana costs P790.00 (US $15.02). Like most halo-halo, Halo-halo Harana has shaved ice dripping with milk, mixed with macapuno, langka, kaong, nata de coco, sweet beans, garbanzos, and topped with ube ice cream, vanilla ice cream, leche flan, and pinipig crunch.

I adore sweet things, so I cockily thought that I would finish Halo-halo Harana in an hour easily. Of course, I was wrong. I fell victim to the Davidisque-size of the dessert and gave up without finishing 20% of the shaved ice and some of the kaong, beans, and garbanzos. Yes, I ate everything that matters in a halo-halo. I went home a happy camper.
