| - I adore Kekou gelato - I've frequented the Queen St W location since it opened (thankfully all year round!) as the Baldwin location was seasonal. There is seating inside, about three big tables and some benches, and now there is a coffee bar in addition to the gelato shop.
Some of my favourites here include the gelato (most with Asian flavours such as HK Milk Tea, Black Sesame, Durian, etc.), the desserts (now serving matcha-misu, vietnamese coffee tiramisu, black sesame creme brulee etc.), and the steamed milks - my favourite thing to get here is the ginger milk, awesome drink to warm up with on a cold day with fresh grated ginger :)
You can always get a few scoops in a take home container and most of their desserts are packaged. Kekou recently started selling their gelato inside two whoopie pies (for ice cream sandwich afficionados), but i find their whoopie pies are a little too sweet and a bit flat/stale for my liking. Make sure to sample a few gelato flavours as some flavours rotate as Kekou keeps experimenting (last week I saw Chinese herbal tea!). They're very supportive of you mulling over every flavour, so go nuts and return for more.
