Gelarto Rosa (Budapest, Hungary)

After the first leg of sightseeing in Budapest moved to a place near St. Stephen’s Basilica to find a parking lot so that we can do our hop on hop off tour in the bus as well as on a river boat. While walking to the station where we will first board our tour we stumbled upon this people studded place beside the Basilica’s square.

Upon closing in near the place queue is starting to get longer and longer and we were wondering what it was. To my surprise it was this ice cream place I saw online before where they serve it like flowers.

There are many flavours to choose from

and very affordable; 2 flavours cost Forint 550, 3 flavours cost Forint 650 and 4 flavours cost Forint 750. That’s NZ$ 3.00, NZ$ 3.50 and NZ$ 4.00 or US$ 2.00, US$ 2.40 and US$ 2.80 respectively.

Having a cheap price doesn’t mean they will skimp on serving, they don’t.

Queuing up didn’t take longer than expected as we were served immediately.

So as it’s nearing its progress, we start to drool after all that heat and choosing our favourite flavour being scooped into the cones.

Just look at that beauty and it’s not just the looks it tasted really good as well. The flavours that we had are hazelnut, cashew, strawberry, pannacotta salted caramel and mangoes, all of them did definitely stand up in flavour.

Now we are all cooled down, ready to fight that searing sun again so we started walking to the direction of our terminal for our hop on hop off tour.
