Tucked away in the mall almost like a gem in the rough. Those that love gelato craftsmenship made with care and charm, this is it. Open your mind (or tongue) and try the different options! Great for couples, family, and friend. If you have a foodie friend who doesn't judge on exterior but rather the taste, this is a worthy spot. The lady helping us allowed us to try different options until we landed on Thai tea, almond amaretto, riceberry horchata on The Special (3 flavors) on a waffle bowl. It was placed on coconut sticky rice. At first I raised my eyebrows but when I tried it, I was blown away how GREAT of combo this is! 5/5 I would go out of my way to try this. What I also love about this is that it isn't sweet like typical dairy icecream but just sweet enough like the true gelatos you have in Italy. You must at least try this with the waffle bowl - it was quite the delight. The portion is big and you'll be surprisingly full. The special (3 flavors) is best for 2-3 people (regular serving). If you're going to eat this by yourself I'd just get 1 serving or the gelato cup. Restroom? No Seating? No

Great selection of gelato flavors with a waffle that you actually want to eat! The sticky rice could use some work as it hardens a bit with the gelato on top.

I don't know if I just have bad luck, but I swear, every time I come to the mall in hopes of getting gelato at this location, it's always closed! First time I went on a Thursday afternoon, then a Friday afternoon, and now a Saturday afternoon (July 11) just to find out they're closed for this weekend due to short staff. I don't trust the hours posted on Google or the website because I'm not sure if they're updated. I don't see the hours physically posted anywhere either. All I wanted is to eat their delicious gelato whenever I'm at the mall. Instead all I get is disappointment and ended up going to an alternative instead. π’

The horchata flavor was great. It did take a little while as the waffle maker needed to be heated, but the addition of the horchata flavor, the rice berry horchata flavor with the Thai tea was a great combination, and the sticky rice also was very well made, similar to the restaurant Jitlada, if anyone has been. But overall, it was great and would recommend. It's tucked away in a little corner of the other half of the Del Amo fashion mall. So if you're ever at the mall, make sure to stop by. Definitely get the hype, and it wasn't busy at all, so make sure to stop there. And it's great.

Yummy homemade ice cream with many unique flavors! My favorite (so far) is the pandan! Planning to go back and try other flavors. The lady at the front is super sweet and friendly too! Would highly recommend if youβre ever in the area.
