Normally I’d only write up a restaurant once, but this weekend we happened to go to Dolcissimo for brunch so I thought it would be a good opportunity to add a postscript to my original review.

As with most places, the brunch menu was a good deal more vegetarian friendly than the dinner menu.
There was a big veggie breakfast, banana bread and (drum roll please) muesli with fruit salad and gelato. Yes, you heard correctly. They let you have your dessert on top of your breakfast.

I’m not a big ice cream / gelato fan. In fact, it’s one of the few vices I can resist. But I couldn’t verily pass up such an opportunity.

And actually, it was pretty tasty. The gelato was passionfruit, which was quite tart and worked well with the sweet taste of the muesli and fruit.
After a little while the gelato started to melt, so the passionfruit flavour dribbled down the dish and mingled with the milk and fruit. How paradoxical that something can sound so gross and yet taste so good.

Sadly, I was so busy ordering my gelato alla muesli that I forgot to take notes about prices, options etc… this may necessitate a return trip. For research purposes, obviously.
