Gelatissimo - Now Open In SM & Ayala!

The Gelatissimo ice cream gelato store is now open in SM and Ayala!



This gelato store originated in Australia, where it has quickly become the number one gelato store in the country. It now has 26 stores, both franchises & company owned, in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, as well as the Philippines. Gelatissimo's award winning gelato is made fresh daily in store to an authentic family recipe. Major mmm factor...!

As per their site, they have sundaes, coffee, chocolates, biscotti, & nougats. I sure wish they had those for sale here... I guess they're focusing on the gelato for now, seeing how the public likes it. And from what I have seen... the P90 per scoop hasnt deterred anyone yet! For the past few years there have been gelato stores that have sprung up in the city, one of the oldest being Pipo's, but they havent captured the Cebuano palette as Gelatissimo has. It seems like those other gelato stores has been holding out on ingredients from us. Gelatissimo gelato is so rich, creamy and tasty, it totally makes me forget about the price tag! Haha. Its totally worth it! Plus, their scoops arent small, their one scoop even equals a small cup! So there, you get your money's worth with this gelato shop.

When I went to their shop, one side of their display case was full of chocolate flavors.
From chocolate hazelnut to the exotic chili chocolate! They give free taste tests too. Just ask for a taste of the flavor you're thinking of having... and they dont scrimp too! They give you a spoonful for you to really taste how it is. I was tempted by the chocolate chip, even though Im not really a fan of chocolate ice cream. So I got the choc chip & my all time fave, pistacchio. They both didnt disappoint, I never expected for a gelato to be rich...


Im drooling for my next visit... I'm lining up my friends even! No takers for today, but tomorrow's another day altogether...;)





Be Trendy Day

This was originally posted yesterday, December 28, 2009.

I'm proclaiming this day to be "Be Trendy" day. Usually I dont put an effort to be trendy in my outfits, I usually go for glam, gorgeous, or laid back glam. But I have a few pieces here and there I guess other people would consider trendy. Here is my effort: (Excuse the foggy mirror. Still gotta buy a new one.)

Dress by Freeway

Bag by XOXO, Tree brass necklace w/ beads from Thailand (you can purchase 1 thru me), kidada bracelet by Sepa.

Gladiator platforms from Multiply.

There you go. It will be a long time before its "Trendy" day again.
