Rocher & Pistachio ice cream Before trying the pistachio ice cream here, I have never had deep impressions of ice cream places selling good pistachio ice creams except Sunday Folks (but that's soft serve). So what makes a good pistachio ice cream? To me, it must have a nutty aroma, well-balanced creaminess and of course, the nut itself.
You could imagine how delighted I was for this hidden gem. Heard good recommendations about their black sesame ice cream too, but I decided to go for the pistachio flavor. I really like how rich in flavor it was, not too milky, doesn't melt that quickly and there were chopped pistachios!
The other flavor that got us enticed was the rocher flavor. I am not really a fan of milk chocolate but this really wasn't too sweet and roasted hazelnut flavor made me feel as though I was eating the rocher chocolate itself! One scoop of premium flavors like these costs $4.50, and additional $1 with that waffle cone. But $5.50 for such a big and delectable ice cream cone, I am more than willing to pay for it.
Also, the cafe crew were really patient with us when we took quite a while to decide which flavors we wanted. It's not an easy decision to make when all the flavors looked so appealing!
