| - I love this place. I was so excited they opened a location on Queen Street that would be open all-year round rather than just the seasonal hours that they have at their Baldwin location. I've had their gelato many times and have recommended this place to numerous friends and coworkers. I highly rave about this place- and all for a good reason! It's delicious!
Staff, as always, are so friendly! They let you try as many flavours as you want and are very patient as they wait for your decision. I once accidentally forgot to use my stamp card for a free medium sized gelato and the card expired. But the girls gladly still honoured it. A+ for customer service.
My favourites are (in order): HK Milk Tea, Mango (tastes like real mango), and Yogurt. My sister LOVES the Durian- though I have not tried this myself.
So why the one less star? They used to PACK it in. From the pictures in other reviews, you can really see how they used to pack a lot of gelato into the cup (as how other gelato places do). I've been coming to Kekou for years (Baldwin location first) and I'm not sure when they changed it... I think it was earlier this year, but now they give scoops of gelato which overall, is a lot less than what you used to get. I used to be satisfied with just a small (where you could choose 2 flavours), which I feel is now a medium. You can now only get one flavour with the small.
As well, the last couple time I wanted to try the soft serve, but it's weekend-only. Just FYI.
Overall, still the best asian-flavoured gelato in Toronto. Customer service is top notch. If only they didn't change the portions, it would no doubt get a 5/5 from me!
