Short & Sweet: Pui Bello
Posted on Feb 20 in Dessert, Dine Inby ShanMasalaPrint
A block away from Martha’s Country Bakery in Forrest Hills is a nice small Italian eatery called Pui Bello. The place has nice small sandwiches and finger foods, but what they are known for is gelato.
The Italian equivalent for ice cream is a known staple at this shop and they surely take pride in it. With so many different flavors and boat loads of different toppings and options, this place is definitely worth checking out.
A few weeks back while I was visiting some friends in Queens, we headed over for some gelato in the area. The restaurant has small meals such as panini sandwiches but we came for dessert. The service at this restaurant isn’t the greatest and on a busy weekend, be prepared to wait for a table. After being seated and checking out the menu, I opted for hazelnut gelato sundae. They have great custom creations as far as desserts go, so you shouldn’t have a problem. The best flavors are chocolate, passion, lemon, mocha & strawberry. The good thing is you can you try as many gelato flavors before ordering to get a feel of what your going to be getting it.
Overall, this is a great little place to stop and have some desserts if your in the area and craving something sweet & creamy.
