Sakura Smoke Artichoke & Pear Compote
.
Awesome new gelato kid in the hood serving up very unique flavours @gelatolabo . Think this sakura smoked artichoke & pear compote. The smokiness really hits the tastebuds and the savouriness of this flavour is balanced by that sweetness from the pear. I would say this is one of the few places I actually have a keen interest to try all the flavours. We also had the Columbian cold brew with cookie butter bits and the bitterness of the coffee complemented the sweetness of the bits perfectly. Definitely have a go at the lavender cone too ($1.40). The floral aroma is very distinct. So whilst the flavours are great, I do feel that the texture of the gelato can be worked on as it falls on the crumbly end of the spectrum. The cone may also be a bit too thin so while it is definitely freshly made and crispy, it loses its crunch quickly with 2 scoops of ice cream sitting in it.
