And, it did not disappoint. The lychee sorbet was so fruity and sweet but also really freakin refreshing. A perfect palate cleanser so I left that to the end. I had the mango gelato first and that was good too, although my only thing is that it was a little dense and creamy so the mango flavor wasn't as dominant like in the sorbet (i like the one at sundaes and cones more but i think that was a sorbet so not really fair to compare I suppose) but other wise I thought the mango was great too, just wish it had more mango flavor. I actually may go back here when I want a gelato fix!

Il laboratorio del gelato
So, it was a rather warm day so I thought, let's have some gelato! So I ventured over there to get me some. Let me say, there are soooooo many flavors that looked good! I wanted to try them all! Crazy flavors like cateloupe with cayenne, lychee, black sesame, honey lavendar, yuzu, etc. along with traditional ones like chocolate, vanilla, amaretto, etc. But they limit you to two flavors per customer :( So I decided to try orange hibiscus cuz it sounded weird, but it just tasted like very orange-y and then I asked the guy behind the counter what the difference between watermelon and their yellow watermelon gelato was and he couldn't explain it and so I got to try it hehehe. It tastes like watermelon but like a little bit off. He was nice, since he said he "made me try that one" he'd give me another taste. Yay! I chose Yuzu, also cuz it sounded whack. It tasted citrus-y and I rather liked it. But, I figured, if I get a cup with two different flavors I really tried 5 flavors! HAHA! So their small cup lets you mix two flavors (LOVE!) for about $3.50? I knew I was in a fruity mood but I also wanted to try gelato since they ARE a gelato shop. I thought I couldnt go wrong with mango gelato and lychee sorbet.
