... this is what happens when you check in on your Yelp app without taking off your sunglasses - I accidentally added my photos to the existing Covent Garden branch, oops!
The Portobello outlet is relatively new and I've been waiting for an excuse to try their ice creams. Very good choice on the hottest day of the year so far. They have a relatively small selection, which actually helps with the time people take to order, so this is a definite plus!
I opted for a scoop of their premium flavour "Black Forest" which is a delicious mixture of chocolate and vanilla ice cream with a delicious cherry topping. For once I didn't regret my retro choice, this gelato was perfect and not too sickly sweet. Scoops are very generous (and so they should at £3.40+), the perfect afternoon treat.
Like most traditional Italian ice cream parlours the decor is nothing to write home about, plain and simple with a lot of purple thrown in - from staff uniforms to spoons, everything is purple here. They have a couple of tables outside, but there is no need to linger with Portobello Market on your doorstep! read more
