Garlic Curry Ice-cream did it for me!

I admit the garlic chocolate chip cookies made as a gag on a
dishwasher (you know person who feeds the machine dishes) in a place I
worked once upon a time were not quite worth going back for more after
he had his first bite and nearly gagged...

I have had a garlic sweet roll which was quite spicy including chili
powder, cinnamon, garlic, mustard and were quite tasty.

The sweet-hot combination often found in many places in the world
often works very well with garlic at least on my taste buds.

Odd that... it was just near Kingston where I had the sweet-hot rolls
with garlic in them. London, ON which if memory serves (and likely
doesn't) is a few KM from Kingston. In the home of a couple I suspect
being of Asian heritage but never asked. The Pho like dinner on
several other occasions would also lead me in that direction.
