The shop has such a chill and cozy vibe, it was quiet enough that I ended up staying for around three hours just relaxing.

their matcha gelato is to die for!! probably the best in adelaide (in my experience)
Yasmin Yeoh Strawberry Matcha Gelato
Despite being dairy free (I think it was made with a soy base), it was creamy, soft and sweet, had a great matcha taste and fresh strawberry laced throughout.
Alouise Thomson Taro Gelato
fell for the Taro (an Asian vegetable apparently 🤷🏻♀️) it was delicious, so I paired it with the dulce de leche = did not disappoint 🤤 = rich, creamy & very flavoursome
MazCal Spiced Pear Gelato
Came here with some friends on a quiet Monday afternoon and had the spiced pear which I hear is very popular. I’ve never had this as a flavour in any dessert before and it blew my mind I would highly recommend it.
