Just the other day, i made a relatively proud proclamation to a friend that i had not dined at McDonald's for quite a while but that's no longer the case when Jovyn insisted on having McChicken for brunch and i couldn't resist ordering a dessert that's only available for a short period of time.
McDonald's Banana Pie!
From the outside, it doesn't look any different from the crunchy apple pie that we were familiar with. I do enjoy the classic apple pie from McDonald's but i am really more a banana lover; not sure if it is linked to my Chinese zodiac of monkey.
The crust was definitely the same as the apple pie but the oozy yellow filling with chunky, saccharine bites of banana was downright delicious! While a pie cannot be compared to our local fried banana (or goreng pisang), i must say i might actually prefer this over the rest of the fried banana stalls now that Lim Kee, my favourite banana stall at Maxwell hawker centre has closed down for good.
It didn't have that artificial flavour that some of the limited edition pies from McDonald's have and wasn't cloyingly sweet. A pity that Jovyn is more interested in the crust than filling. Well, taste buds might change when she is older; as i did with dried mushrooms and yam paste.
