What happens when you promise a friend to meet up for Gelato to cool off after a hot week in Toronto? Well, you would live up to that promise, because, you know, that's just how promises work -- even after a massive storm when temperatures dip like mad.
Vika and I have not been to their location on Baldwin Village before so it's our first time trying out Kekou after hearing positive raves from friends about their nostalgic but much-desired Gelato flavours like Hong Kong Milk Tea, Durian and Pandan (think sweet Asian Grass Vanilla) -- we had to try this place out.
After sampling a wide variety of flavours (no shame there, really) we went with Hong Kong Milk Tea & Viet Coffee to replicate that "Ying Yong" feel of a popular Hong Kong-based beverage.
If you ever feel overwhelmed with all the flavours in this place -- we would recommend this combination.
Seriously, what better way to cool off eh?
Other Recommendations:
1. Durian (it's as good as eating the real fruit)
2. Green Tea Whiskey
3. Peanut Sesame
4. Hong Kong Milk Tea
5. Banana Avocado (try it beforehand, it can be a bit "funky")
