Paradis



While browsing at the watches at Timeworx in the Il Terrazzo Mall along Tomas Morato in Quezon City, I came across this stall Paradis, which makes unique flavors of gelato.  They had one of a kind flavors like Pumpkin and Malunggay, which I tried but didn't fancy.  I settled for Red Beets and Orange, coupled with Wasabi ice cream!  The contrast made for an interesting combination.  The red beets gave the orange flavor a slightly different twist, and this served as the sweet base to the dessert.  Since the wasabi had the spice that goes through your nose, that served as the zing!  Outside Japanese restaurants, this is the only ice cream place that I have seen serving Wasabi ice cream.  I understand from the staff that they do not use artificial coloring, and that the gelato is made in small batches at their factory to keep the freshness of the produce.  A bit on the high-end side of pricing though, 2 scoops comes to P190.  Still, it's an interesting experience.
