I am about so say something quite controversial so take a deep breath and brace yourself... Zero Gradi is possibly better than Messina. THERE I SAID IT.
I had a unquenchable hankering for chocolate last night and after a few complimentary tastings, I went for chocolate, creme brulee and strawberry in a cup (three flavours = seven clams). The strawberry was MIND-BLOWING and easily the standout of the three.
Alos, I must say, they have done a helluva job on the fitout. It is slick, shiny and almost futuristic in appearance. Behind the gelato bar are beautifully laid out cones and wafers in glass boxes and two chocolate fountains (yes you read correctly. Chocolate fountains.) It certainly has wow factor.
Each serve comes with a wafer and the option to have it covered in white or dark chocolate from the fountains, which then goes hard. Yes! Like Ice Magic!
Sure. It doesn't have the chunky bits or crazy flavours we've come to know and love at Messina, but for top notch gelati that will quench your sweet tooth, Zero Gradi ticks the boxes. read more
