Bono Gelato


While waiting for the seminar at Dusit Thani Manila, I decided to 
try Bono Artisanal Gelato to see what the fuzz was all about...
The colorful attractive wall says everything about the place!

Unlike the usual Gelato shops, their Ice cream isn't displayed in a pan.
they're covered in  metalic bins which I think helps it stay more fresh.

They make their gelato fresh daily, in small batches.
NO ARTIFICIAL ADDITIVES (colors, emulsifiers, flavors) and do not use any ready-made mixes or pastes. They make everything from scratch, the slow-food, whole-food way; the same way the Italian mammas used to do it.  
You can have your gelato in waffle cones or in cups

I chose their new flavor Red Velvet. My favorite!!
I also tried their best seller SPECULOOS!
I just love cookie butter!


As you can see they don't scrimp on ingridients!
In every bite you can really taste chunks and chunks of  cookie butter!
their gelato is smooth and very creamy!
The Red Velvet gelato is simply divine! 
BEST Gelato I ever had!
You can taste chunks of cream cheese & pieces of red velvet cake!
Every  spoonful I had was pure heaven.

Born in Manila, with Italian Soul. They have  been featured in the Italian magazine Punto Italy which is distributed worldwide! (they really deserve it!)
I love this Gelato shop! 
The atmosphere was bright & staff was really friendly.  Prices were very reasonable.
The selection of flavours is a tad on the small side, but I am a strong believer in quality than quantity. So far their Gelato is really one of the best!

SOL GELATO


We were supposed to go home after coming from Chili's...
My daughter Phranczeska kept on insisting that we should drop by the Piazza cause she wanted to feed the pigeons and play.

While walking, this cute sign immediately grabbed my attention.
Hooray for friday!

The store...
It was cute and small, around 3 small tables I think..
Upon entering the store, you'll notice this colorful wall of the Italy's canal.
Looking at it, a gondola ride through the canals of Venice gives the room an authentic Italian feel. .

*DID you know that Gondoliers must be officially licensed,must wear black pants, a striped shirt, and closed dark shoes. They usually have a special hat but don't always wear it*

Now the Gelato!
Lots of flavors to choose from..
My daughter chose Ferrero 
see how thick and creamy it is!

I've tried Ferrero  from different gelato shops, this one is really flavorful! 
It really brought out the Ferrero flavor and it had chunks of chocolate too!
one of the best I'd say.

As I mentioned in my previous post, I love Salted Caramel.


All I could say was WOW!
this has been the best salted caramel gelato for me so far, I used to think that Merry Moo's version of sea salt caramel gelato was the best, I changed my mind. This is on top of my list!
It even had chunks of honeycomb, my daughter tried it and said right away that is was better!

I will definitely comeback to try other flavors.
Their gelato really hit the spot! 
Believe me it's really good!!
