Gelato hasn’t always been a part of my life, however that all changed one winter in Japan. I was strolling around a very modern and posh mall in Omotesando Hills (www.omotesandohills.com), and came across this lovely Gelato shop. The name was Gelateria Bar, and right smack in front, you couldn’t miss the colorful showcase of gelato! We finally stopped in, and I decided to try the apple gelato special. The menu was all in Japanese, but I ordered from looking at the pictures that accompanied the text.
Wow! One bite and I was in love! In every scoopy of gelato, it tasted like a fresh ripe apple. The texture was different too! Mixed in with the gelato were small bits of apple, so the taste was amazing. My desert also came out with champagne jelly cubes and some other yummy stuff. Yummy!
