Gelatomio

Tried out 2 new places yesterday; Gelatomio and Chicago Rib House at Gurney Plaza.

Gelatomio

Since we had our first gelato in Rome and second in Florence (read about my food adventure here and here), we decided to try out Gelatomio, Italian Traditional Ice-Cream.

Gelatomio

Selection of flavours available
I chose pistachio flavoured gelato (to compare with the one I had with Giolitti, Rome), while hubby had the crunch-rum flavoured gelato.


 

Price wise, it's rather comparable with the price we were charged in Florence. 1 small cup with 2 scoops of ice-cream costs RM 7.40. In Florence, the same cup costs 2 Euros, but the amount of ice-cream we got there is much more than what we got here at Gelatomio.



Oh let's not talk about taste. The pistachio gelato did not at all have any hint of pistachio, but had a strong coffee taste. What?? Could they have mixed up the flavours? Also, the ice-cream was not creamy and smooth at all :(
On the other hand, the crunch-rum tasted quite nice, with a tinge of rum in it.



I don't think I will come back here again unless I am convinced that the other flavours are good.
Do you have any recommendation for good gelato, on par with the ones sold in Italy?
