When I hear the words "gelato" or "gelateria," normally I don't think twice about them. As most…read morepeople know, gelato tends to be made with milk, and as a result, I avoid that.
But I came to Gelateria Mos Eisley because Anne S. had received an invitation from them which also specified that they had vegan flavors. Naturally I assumed that meant one or two, like my favorite ice cream standby, Tanne B.
But no. It's fair to say that a good 1/3 to 1/2 of the gelato/eis available was vegan. And the flavors weren't all boring. Grapefruit & Estragon? Schoko-Minze? Yes please.
The ice cream was also super rich and flavorful, and I thoroughly enjoyed my scoops. So much so, that even though I live in Kreuzberg, I plan to go out of my way every so often to check this place out. It's a perfect stop on your way to Tempelhofer Park, for example.
Also, although the meaning of the name had to be explained to us, if any of you are bonafide nerds and/or Star Wars fans, you will love the word play.
