[Eat] New Zealand, Auckland- Gaipo the “Special Ice Cream”

After our tour from Hobbiton™ Movie Set, our tour guide told us that we had some time for dessert and he can introduce a dessert store in town where we can give it a try. So we were being brought to this Instagram famous store where they sold creative ice cream.

GIAPO ICE CREAM

Located in Auckland city centre. GIAPO Ice Cream is creative and Instagramable Gelato store.

The owner of Giapo along with his wife and co-owner, Annarosa Grazioli, came to New Zealand from Italy and were well-versed in the American and Italian traditions of ice cream-making their plan is to “take over the world” and offer their customers a different type of ice cream where delicious art plays the most important role.

Overall:

When we were there the queue was quite long and while waiting for our turn we got to have a look at the menu and the choice to choose from was quite a lot. Most of the people would go for their “selfie cone” which is one of the instagramable ice cream, however, we choose something simpler. The gelato was awesome with the combination of Yorkshire Pudding.
