After the unfortunate events of the past week within
Southern Alberta, it was a nice change to experience a heat wave going through
the area (especially for those that are still cleaning out their homes and
businesses). Most Calgarians are trying to cope with this warmer weather, since
we’re not used to this unexpected humidity, especially mid 30s temperature
quite so early in the summer! Lucky for us, there are many great establishments
in and around the city that serve amazing treats to help cool us down,
including the newly opened Fiasco Gelato located at the Bridgeland Market.
I’ve visited the market several times before to pick up
certain specialty items or stopped by for a coffee. So it was great to see the renovations
to the market allowing it to accommodate the new gelateria. From the whimsical
hand drawn menu on the wall to the funky art deco photo frames hanging nearby,
it really seemed to brighten up the space. What was even more incredible was
when I found out that they did everything within a week!
I’m a huge ice cream, gelato, froyo fan (basically any
frozen treat really), so I couldn’t wait to taste all the flavours that they
offered. Some of my favorites were the Salted Hazelnut, Strawberry Balsamic and
Toasted Coconut. There were so many
delightful flavours it was hard not wanting to order them all. They also serve handmade waffle cones,
specifically at this location only! The waffle batter has hints of cinnamon,
which lingers in the air making the space smell incredible. If that wasn’t
enough, they also have a chocolate fountain which is used to hand dip each and
every waffle cone in decadent milk chocolate.
So if you find yourself melting in the heat, be sure to drop
by the market in Bridgeland! Great for kids, but also perfect for those who are
looking to satisfy the kid in themselves!
