"A Rose by Any Other Name Would Taste as Sweet." (Misquote, "Romeo and Juliet")…read more
Juliet was perchance ordering her rose-shaped gelato from Amorino, whence she first spoke her most famous phrase, upon discovering these frozen blooms were as sweet and fine of works of art as those wrought by Mother Nature herself.
Amorino Gelato 'twas founded in the year 2002 by two Italians, bosom companions from their youth. Their first shop commenced in Paris, and from there the chain doth spread its fame 'cross the world o'er.
What maketh Amorino so special is not just that their gelato is all natural and organic, but also that their dessert artists masterfully carve gelato petals into the shape of flowers! Thou mayest order endless flavors such as Sri Lankan Coconut or Orange Blossom Cream... as many flavors as there are petals upon thy cone. All this is then crowned by a gelato-filled macaron.
I ordered the basil lime alongside the tiramisu, topped with a pistachio macaron. The resulting sweet rose was rich and much smoother than the course of true love, but alas, did not survive as long as any botanical bouquet I have e'er received.
Overall, this doth prove a merry and touristic experience, without forfeiting the quality thereof. Stop in to treat yourself or to give some sweets to the sweet. Get thee to Amorino...or get thee to a nunnery!
