After grabbing dinner in the area, my friends and I were craving dessert, so we naturally had to go…read moremake our way to a sweet little treat, Bacio di Latte. Parking in Pasadena is tricky but I believe that you can go to any parking structure and get a cheaper parking deal. They let you sample the gelato so I tried everything chocolate and opted for the hazelnut and the ferrero rocher. They have three sizes for their cups: piccolo, regular, and grande. All the flavors were wonderful - I just prefer my gelato to be chocolate-forward! They also let you add two flavors for the piccolo and three flavors for the regular. Very generous if you ask me! This is a grab and go spot so be prepared to walk around with your gelato or eat it standing up! If there is a line and a crowd inside, it may be hard to linger and take the cute photos but the inside is aesthetic, cute, and worth a moment to take in. You could potentially sit in their window sill area if you end up going late night, which is what we ended up doing.

So glad we came before the rush as after we got our shaved ice, there ran out of seats! The ice was very soft and we loved how it was not too sweet but we could add some watered down condensed milk on top if we wanted to. The flavors also really came through in the ice. The whole dessert was absolutely light, refreshing, and delicious. They also have lattes and croffles. I highly recommend. We got the mango melon & strawberry matcha shaved ice. Will definitely be back to try the strawberry and black sesame!

This place is a bit hidden in an alleyway, but I love poké so when this popped up on my Yelp search…read moreI knew I wanted to try it. Fair warning, they do not have white rice available. It's only purple or brown rice, which is a healthier option, but I understand it's not for everyone. I got the regular size poké bowl with purple rice, and it's cooked perfectly that it has a fluffy texture very similar to white rice's. What I really liked about this place is that they mix your sauces with the protein in a separate mixing bowl before putting it into your poké bowl. Most poké places I've been too won't do this as an extra step - they'll just drizzle a bunch of sauce that sometimes the dry ingredients gets drenched and soggy. As for the fish itself, the portions are very fair, and the quality is good. They gave a pretty generous amount of avocado as well, which was very fresh, and you do not have to pay extra for it. Rarely do I come across a poké restaurant that does this.

I tried the mint and orange vanilla. My mind was blown. I expected the mint to be like any other mint flavor but this was very different. It was actual mint. Imagine drinking a cup of Moroccan mint tea. The flavor was so true to the herb. It didn't taste artificial or weird. It was very, very fresh. Not too sweet, not bitter. Perfect, really. The vanilla orange was incredible too. It was so interesting because I could taste fresh orange and taste fresh vanilla bean individually. I think this ice cream was a little magical. My boyfriend had the candied pecan - also incredible. The flavors of each ice cream truly are pronounced and expertly crafted. He also tried the pear champagne which I'll admit since I didn't like the champagne flavor - which is not a negative because I don't like champagne. So, really it's a compliment because they did that ice cream true to the flavor to the point I didn't like it lol.

The unfortunate part is that the ice cream really isn't that good, and the portions are small for what you pay. What really turned me off, though, was the lack of common sense from the staff. If you've been here, you know they have a display case with slices of cake and pie. Normally you look through the case and point to the piece you want. That's exactly what I did. There were about ten pieces of cake in the case, and I picked one that had the perfect icing-to-cake ratio. The employee asked what I wanted, and when I pointed to the slice she told me, "You can only pick from these two," while holding up two other pieces. Apparently those were the older slices that they were trying to get rid of. They were clearly smaller and, judging by how they were being pushed, probably not the freshest either. Since I was basically being forced to buy something I didn't want, I said I didn't want anything. She just said "okay" and moved on to help the rest of my family. At that point I told my family we were leaving and heading to Bloomfield Creamery in Altadena instead. The employee had every opportunity to use a little common sense and simply give me the slice I asked for. I work hard for my money, and if I'm paying premium prices, I expect to choose what I'm buying. Instead, they lost Madre family of customers for good.
