OK, summer came way too early this year and I'm royally pissed because I bought a lot of coats from my fave store in HK, but I digress. So with the mercury currently hitting as high as 33C, we needed to cool off. My brothers introduced me to Gelatissimo and I've been hooked since. It's also a refreshing break from all the damn fro-yos. (By the way, adding cheesecake and brownies doesn't mean that those sinful sweets become healthy, so stop being a hypocrite)
More after the jump.
Of course, I expected decent gelato at the very least, but what I didn't expect was all sorts of flavours even exotic ones! Chocolate chili, anyone? (Full bodied chocolate with a slight kick from the chili) Papaya-Passion Fruit (heavy on the passion fruit, hardly tasted the papaya). Chocoholics are well taken cared off, because one fridge is just for chocolate flavours! My brothers and I love the Veronese, which is the gelato version of Ferrero. I was so hooked at during my week or so in Cebu I ate it everyday and towards the end of my trip I had their gelato three times a day.
I later found out there's a lone branch here in Manila (Greenbelt 5) so whenever I'm in Greenbelt, I make sure I'd stop by this shop.

For creative mix of flavours on top of more conventional ones.
That`s pretty awesome! Interesting, too.

ReplyDeleteI've tried the Macadamia and Caramel flavor... it's the bomb @__@
ReplyDeleteThere are no macadamia bits but the gelato itself has a very strong flavor of it. Yummy :D
