Gelatolabo recently opened their third outlet in a mixed use space, sharing it with a coffee joint and upcoming pizzeria! It’s a bustling place with lots of warmth from the staff.

The flavours I wanted to try were out of rotation, so I opted for a double scoop ($8, + $1 per gourmet flavour / + $2 per alcoholic flavour) of their best sellers - navel orange & white chrysanthemum and sakura smoked artichoke & pear. The floral flavour of the first is tinged with a mellow sweetness, giving it more depth than most other renditions. The other takes you by surprise - the woody aroma hits first, followed hints of savouriness and lastly ending with a briny honey. It has such a complex flavour profile that whilst unconventional, melds together perfectly. A very intriguing, innovative find - I look forward to trying more!
