Gelato at Lombardi's

     My fiancĂ© and I were avid fans of ice cream. I remember the first time he visited our crib with a gallon of Rocky Road. When I said it was our family’s favorite ice cream flavor, he humbly joked around pretending it was a gallon of fish paste. My brother was charmed by the dessert. From that day on he became our love team’s number one fan.
     Like him, my almond shaped-eyes widen whenever I see these cold mouth-melting desserts. There is something behind those sweet treat that changes my “Hulk-a-like” mood.
     We’re used to dine in and hang-out with our friends or family, but not this time. We want this one to be a bit intimate him-and-me-bonding like before. I must admit we rarely have time together for the past weeks and we want to discuss few plans for our wedding. We decided to meet-up and have a plateful of Italian dish at Lombardi’s Shangri-la.
     There was a heavy rain and I have to commute from Makati to Shangri-la. My pumps and pants were soaking wet. Teary-eyed, I entered Shangri-la and saw him with bouquet of white roses. He was apologetic but I was a bit exhausted that I haven't said a word yet. I felt really tired that I already lost my appetite.
     I was somewhat calmed by the peaceful ambience of Lombardi’s. Instead of ordering something to munch in for dinner, I simply had a huge gelato instead to modify my mood. The Barca de Gelato looked nice on the menu but my face brightened when it was served right in front of me. All I said was Wow! 
     I felt great (and full) after we finished that barca of amazing treat. I never tried Lombardi’s gelato before but since that day on, ice cream spots number two on my list of favorite desserts, next to gelato.
     Definitely a must try!
