Amorino has the Gelato

 Oh gelato, you make me smile,
especially in the form of a beautiful rose.

Yes, you read that correctly, gelato in the shape of a rose.

You can find this so called rose shaped gelato at Amarino in Chicago.




After hearing about this place, I HAD to add it to our itinerary while we were back in the Windy City. Amarino is downtown, and we didn’t have that much trouble finding parking. We went later in the afternoon; I would say around 5 p.m. and found Amarino to be especially empty.



When you enter the double sliding doors (cool touch) you will be right in front of their gelato selections. They have a wide selection. We came for the rose, but you are able to get a simple bowl instead as well. 



When finally deciding what flavors we wanted we ended up with Pistachio, cookie butter, and chocolate. The flavors went very well together.

We watched in awe as the server sculpted a beautiful rose master piece in front of us.

It turned out so pretty!





Not only did it look pretty, the flavors were very good. My personal favorite from our selections was the cookie butter. Just thinking about it makes me hungry. The gelato came in a waffle cone, and was plenty big enough for us both to share. We each grabbed a cute, small, ice cream tasting spoon from the counter and dug right in. They offer different sized roses just like they do regular cones. We went with the medium size and it was the perfect amount for us.

Amarino also offers macaroons! What could be better?

We picked out two pistachio- one each. And they did not disappoint. 




All in all, Amarino is amazing! It's definitely worth a stop!

Be on the lookout for another blog coming very soon!
Tasty~
