When Gelato isn't just Ice-Cream

When in Melbourne, venture to Lygon Street, or Little Italy just 10 minutes walk from the City. A 50-year old gelato store called Dolce el Gelato is tucked away, its secretive location given away only by the long queues snaking out of the shop on hot summer afternoons and chilly winter nights.
The Roche flavour is a blend of crunchy hazelnuts, crisp biscuit bits and rich chocolate ice cream. Ask for a double scoop and match this with durian flavour.
Yes, sounds like a heart attack-inducing combination, but I guarantee a be-still-my-heart moment instead.
The durian is smooth and buttery - the essence of this asian fruit, with a light aroma.
Combined, these two flavours play on your tongue
