Venezia: Sorbets

Parkway Parade is Evil.
This is why Parkway Parade is Evil:

  • Venezia Gelateria
  • Andersen's
  • Scoopz
  • New Zealand Natural
  • Swensen's

I went to Parkway after a 2 hour cycling session at East Coast. As I stepped in I could hear The hum of angels singing in the background softly espousing the delectable delights of dairy-based frosties. But these weren't normal angels, instead halos they had horns and like some sex-straved succubus they guided me around to all the ice-cream parlours in the place.

I caved and bought a scoop of Venezia's Lemon and Mango Sorbet each. What a disappointment! The Lemon Sorbet wasn't as good as I last remembered it. It tasted slightly acidic rather than sour. The Mango Sorbet was much better but still not quite up to the heights of pleasure I was expecting. I fear that Venezia will be suffering the same fate of Banquet and Coffee Bean. Too many outlets and too little quality control. Hopefully the other flavours are still up to snuff.
