| - I first had Chef Desyree's gelato at her previous shop called Art of Flavors. I remember it wasn't particularly a memorable experience. I know it's difficult to go in a place with 5 star rating because that sets the bar and expectation high. Years later, I am back at her new shop and glad I drove +10 miles for this place. And that really means something because I hate driving.
SERVICE
Walking in and was immediately greeted by a gentleman. He was generous enough to have us sample almost all the gelato they had on display. I was a little disappointed that they didn't have Green Tea Kit Kat that everyone and their dog are raving about. I did get to try Pear and Gorgonzola that many also talked about, unfortunately didn't quite like the flavor of it.
GELATO
They have about 20 different flavors which changes daily. All gelato are made fresh with love and care by Chef Desyree. They have many gluten-free options as well. After trying bunch of samples and staring at the display for a good minute, I decided to go with Fior Di Latte (sweet cream) and Rice Pudding gelato.
Fior Di Latte: It was like a sweetened milk, super creamy with subtle sweetness. I loved that even though it was milk flavored, it wasn't too rich or heavy like how I imagined it to be. Its light and delicate flavor was perfect for me! 5/5
Rice Pudding: This reminded me of pudding I used to eat growing up back in Japan called Pucchin Pudding. Creamy texture and nostalgia...5/5
I know Chef Desyree gets very creative with her gelato. Some of these gelato include Pink Lemonade, Blueberry Pancake, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Froot Loops Cereal, Red and White Organic Miso with Almond Toffee, Smurf, etc.
CONCLUSION
Believe the hype. Check their Instagram (gelatologylv) to see their flavor of the day!
