Passione Gelateria & Dessert Bar 2

After brunch at The London Club we proceeded 2 doors away to Passione Gelateria as we wanted very much to try their other flavours. We saw an advert at the door promoting Ravioli either crab or spinach & ricotta on sundays...hmmmm!

For desserts, we ordered a trio of Passionfruit, Tiramisu and Chocolate Mint. We found the sorbet too sweet for our liking though there is evident high pulp content. The tiramisu and chocolate mint were creamy but relative to other gelaterias, these were alot milder in flavour.


We also had our pick of chocolate and meringues from the display cabinets. The chocolate nibbles we selected were from top left clockwise; Dark chocolate i) Mango creme, ii) Brandy and  iii) Rum chocolate truffles. The mango creme was really sweet but the liquer truffles were good with the bitter chocolate shell. Passione's boutique chocolates are outsourced.

In addition, Passione offers a fair selection of cakes and other Italian treats like the Cannoli. Personally, we wouldn't go out of the way for their gelati. There are favourites much closer to home!

    I was there a few weeks ago! The gelati was decent, but doesn't compare to Bar Italia in Sydney, unfortunately. I wanted to try the Spaghetti dessert at Passione, but was too full after having dinner at Beccofino. haha!
