Review of aROMA Gelato

I found this ice cream shop in the lists of gluten-free venues in Pula. I thought it has a lot of gluten-free tastes. I was also aware of the higher price (3.50 euro per scoop) but I wanted to try some unusual tastes so I went for it. Unfortunately it went out they only have few options in place for both dairy free and gluten free (I cannot consume dairy) and, of those, I could only try one because the ice cream saloon is mixed (it has gluten cones so the spatula comes in contact with the gluten cones and there is a risk of cross-contamination. The girls working in the shop were very knowledgeable about celiac and they told me they would open a new ice cream package so I could try the ice cream, and used gloves, new spatula. Sadly there was only one gluten free dairy free taste I could try (the berry one), nothing fancy like strawberry with basil, etc. I also had gluten free cone. The ice cream was tasty - no matter the berry taste it had real fruits and it was not like traditional sorbet - more creamy texture and very delicious. The price though is a killer - I paid 5€ for one scoop and GF cone (you have to pay for it).
