Came to Sai Kung to try a few shops I was keen on visiting. BIBINI is a new gelati shop, mostly 'home made' by a friendly Italian Guy, promising no artificial colours and trans fat. $42 for 3 Flavours, the portioning is slightly bigger than Milkissimo's 3 Flavours, but its weird to see people complain that's expensive, considering how much more effort and ingredients cost it will take to make a natural flavoured Gelato flavour compared to Frozen Yogurt or a cup of Coffee.

Came to Sai Kung to try a few shops I was keen on visiting. BIBINI is a new gelati shop, mostly 'home made' by a friendly Italian Guy, promising no artificial colours and trans fat.

$42 for 3 Flavours, the portioning is slightly bigger than Milkissimo's 3 Flavours, but its weird to see people complain that's expensive, considering how much more effort and ingredients cost it will take to make a natural flavoured Gelato flavour compared to Frozen Yogurt or a cup of Coffee.

Ordered these flavours:

1) VANILLA - This looked more yellow than anticipated. Made from Mexican Vanilla paste rather than cooked from scratch of real vanilla pods, this batch was slightly too strong than the owner had intended, as he explained.

2) COFFEE - This had a bit of coffee flavouring.

3) PISTACHIO - This one looked the right part as the colours looked natural. Flavour was enjoyable.

Texture of their frozen gelato is not icy but more syrupy, I personally think there's slightly too much dextrose and other things to achieve this texture, but it was enjoyable in the end. 其實自己做過雪糕就好容易明, 邊啲味易啲做或難做啲, 同用咩料. 這間的算是 natural, 但大部份啲 gelato flavor 也不算太難做, 因為本身有'奶底'. 要讚的, 是我試過'水底味'做的 Sorbet, 也不會太 Icy, 果然有啲料到.
