interestingly, i just visited that place in aurora blvd two nites ago and ordered the classic banana split. yes, for nostalgia purposes. i wanted to feel the feeling of parking in the vast parking area just like when we were kids and the family car would bring us there. i wanted to smell the crisp scent of dry ice, too! but the establishment, though still open (and was given a retro look) is now run by Nestle. the intriguing part is that Magnolia runs a small store across the street now.

And the classic jingle:
ReplyDelete"Magnolia
The ice cream flavor
Flavor of the month"
Followed by that woman's voice:
"For April
Luscious mango with macapuno drippings
Only from Magnolia"
Ah, sweet delicious memories of Magnolia.
