The Gelato Ventures

Adventure #250. Hells Kitchen, San Diego. Chocolate crusted.

Who knew that you could find gelato in Hell? Everything is top shelf in Hell so give this gelato and you will probably say ‘If this is hell I can’t imagine what heaven is like’.

It’s a sad when you see this! Someone is going to lose their job.

Adventure #249 Bella Roma, Sunnyvale, CA. Coconut and blood orange.

Bella Roma owner Sam is from Roma , Italy and brought his expertise and equipment with him to this cool gelateria in Sunnyvale. He makes small batches each and definitely knows what he’s doing. Stop in and ask for Sam.

Adventure #247 Terrazzo, San a Juan, Puerto Rico. Coconut with Strawberry.

It’s hot and humid people!!! Do you know why it’s a requirement to drink a little rum and eat some gelato when in San Juan? Because it’s humid!!!! Weren’t you paying attention? Anyway, check Terrazzo’s out when you’re in the neighborhood. Good gelato and a great place to watch other people sweat.

Adventure #245 Amorino, Plano, Texas. Dark chocolate with coconut.

Who doesn’t like getting flowers? Yes, gelato flowers are a thing especially when you walk into a Amorino’s! The Gelato Ventures crew made a stop in Plano, Texas this afternoon and there was zero chance that we would pass up an opportunity to get a flowered gelato. Thanks to Frankie D for taking one for the team.!!

Adventure #144 Swell Dog Gelato.

Yes, dogs eat gelato on this crew. Wrigley loves this stuff!!

Adventure #240 Aria Patisserie, Las Vegas, Nevada. Watermelon

It’s a hot one in Vegas and we don’t mean at the tables. A little refreshing watermelon to cool us down before heading back to find a hot table.

Adventure #239 Ciao Ciao, Caesar’s Palace, Las Vegas, Nevada. Limoncello with Coconut.

Most of the gelato in Vegas isn’t small batch produced so the quality isn’t what you would expect from a good gelateria. Nevertheless, the gelato at Ciao Ciao was surprisingly good. Now on to the gambling part of Caesar’s.

Adventure #238 Bellagio Patisserie, Las Vegas, Nevada. Strawberry with pistachio.

Adventure #236 Serafina, San Juan, Puerto Rico. Vanilla

Adventure #235 Terrazo, San Juan, Puerto Rico.

New island, new gelato. Tried the Ferrero Rochelle and Coconut which turned out to be a wise selection. Good gelato with outstanding customer service so if you’re around give it a try.

We are making the rounds in San Diego for the next few weeks followed by a few stops in Chicago to wrap up April. We’ll be in Los Angeles and San Juan, Puerto Rico in May.

Adventure #230 Gelato Classico, Palo Alto, California. Coconut and macadamia nut with Honey and Lavender.

Located just steps from Stanford University sits a gelateria that makes a mighty fine gelato. The downtown area is alive and definitely a great place to chill out, have a bite to eat, and hunker down for some serious people watching. Gelato Classico is bright and clean while also offering a good number of flavors that should satisfy anyones taste.

Feeling Uber smart by sampling the coconut macadamia nut which seriously reminded us of being in Hawaii. This flavor is highly recommended for anyone who visits this cool gelateria and we look forward to another stop when in the area again.

Adventure #230 Ko’olina Il Gelato. Dragon fruit.

Such a delight to be able to enjoy a world class gelato after a day at the beach. Even better when you can take to your room for a private moment. Yes, sometimes it important to have a private moment with your gelato!!! Don’t judge!

Interpret that!

Pizza can be so rude.

Doesn’t everyone need this!

We’d be immune for the next 37 variants.
