Il Dolce Freddo

The best gelato place! My favourite flavours were ferrero and pistachio; they were so rich and creamy and flavour-packed. The pistachio had a nice nutty flavour and there were chunks of Ferrero chocolate in the Ferrero gelato. They were open until late and you could dine in also unlike a lot of gelato places that were takeaways only.

This place is an institution for gelato if you're in the vicinity of Lygon Street. Love the range of flavours available here. The gelato is smooth and creamy, and absolutely delicious. Tried the Milo, and took away my go-to flavours of pandan and yam, and wasn't disappointed at all. The flavours are on point!

Talk about amazing service!! We walked from Brunswick St after dinner to get some Gelato. I wanted to get Durian Gelato fm Il Dolce Freddo and Google states that they close at 10 and we should reach at 9.45 pm... Given that information, we bypass all the other Gelato shops and made our way there.. Horrors!! The doors were closed! Lights were on and decided to try to door but it was shut! Disappointed as it was our last night in Melbourne! Next thing u know the owner opened the door and mentioned that they had closed early but if we know what flavour we wanted, he could get it for us.... Got my Durian and Hubby got Matcha as they were had ran out on Black Sesame. Twice lucky in one night (if u read my other post about Ofuroya Onsen)....
