Very creamy yet sweet when you've had too much! Hehe. The place is small so expect to be seated outside!

So I (finally) had the chance to taste the famous Gelato; so I was suggested to try Iced Coffee with Vanilla custard. This costs 130php- regular size. I had high expectations from this "cream ice" and it wasn't what I was expecting, I couldn't really point out the difference of the Vanilla custard from the usual Vanilla ice cream (or is it really not that easy to distinguish?).
For me, I wouldn't spend so much money on Gelato and would only have it occassionally. If you think I'm wrong, suggest other flavors that I should try the next time I visit Rita's ;)

On the hunt for a new favorite dessert!

For the longest time, I'm on the great journey of finding the best dessert after getting a full-belly meal. Was it Rita's flavored shaved ice topped with creamy frozen custard? It just might be! I wasn't expecting the amount of serving, having been used to the tiny cups of other Western frozen treats. Easy to say I was more than satiated with the treat I ordered. There was a certain heaviness to custard as a contrast to the "fluffiness" creams tend to have; it was a good combination with the flavored ice. (I find it weird though: I was used to seeing ice cream as just one thing and not separately as Rita's treats are: literally just custard on ice. Haha. I might have to cheat on my all-time favorite ice cream for this new found gem!)

Unfortunately, the sweetness of the dessert wasn't fully enjoyed to the lack of space-- there weren't enough tables and chairs, so my friends and I had to move to the open area UPTC has. Hopefully they expand their area (I think they are? I wasn't able to recall any more detail other than the food. Teehee.)
