Exciting new discovery! GELATO!

Jul 05, 2007 08:55

After taking in lunch at Green Mango with knotty_mark for his birthday (great to see you...thanks for the chat) Steve and I met up with nobodyhere for dinner. We had planned to hit Sushi Island as mycrazyhair suggested it for its veggie options but when we got there it was WAY too hot. We decided to meander down the street to see what else was around. We chose another sushi ( Read more... )

Just don't ask for the durian gelato. Unless you are well aware of what durian is, and actually like it.

Isn't it just nummy? I luuurv Gelato, especially raspberry. Frozen pureed raspberries, with just a bit of sugar, yum. *g* And about 1/3 the calories of ice cream, and a hella lot less fat.

*pedant mode on*

Gelato can be made with just fruit & water, but it is often also made with full-fat milk. There is less cream in it than in ice cream (sometimes no cream), so the amount of fat in a gelato is still lower. Whole Lotta Gelata in K-dub usually has 4-6 flavours that are sorbetti, made with fruit, sugar, and water. These are dairy-free, for any vegans &&|| lactose intolerant out there. Though if I were a militant vegan rather than an unabashed omnivore, I'd ask.

Tasty and strange flavours that I've tried:
o lemongrass (delicious!)
o honey & lavendar (interesting, a bit soapy)
