This is as authentic as you can get!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Located in the busy Poblacion<\/a> neighborhood, Il Fiore is a homegrown earth kitchen and a gelateria<\/strong> serving quick healthy meals and artisanal gelato using locally sourced ingredients.<\/p>\n

Fun fact:<\/strong> Il Fiore means 'the flower' in Italian.<\/pre>\n
<\/p>\n
The wall art is made of real moss. Feel it, but don't pull it out!<\/pre>\n
<\/p>\n
Earth Kitchen<\/span><\/h2>\n
Il Fiore is an earth-friendly and vegetarian-friendly<\/strong> cafe; it is a passion project by owner, Hazel Que, who is a new vegetarian. Being the only vegetarian at home, Hazel had to find and prepare her own food everyday, and so the dishes here are her own homemade recipes and creations.<\/p>\n
KOFTA SPAGHETTI POMODORO<\/strong><\/p>\n
Spaghetti pasta served with light and fresh tomato sauce and topped with three crispy vegetarian kofta balls. <\/em><\/p>\n
Insider tip:<\/strong> The serving size is huge and can be shared by two people.<\/pre>\n
<\/p>\n
PORTOBELLO MOZZA BURGER<\/strong><\/p>\n
Deep fried portobello mushroom burger with mozzarella cheese filling, served with alfalfa sprouts, tomato and lettuce. Order it solo, with a side<\/strong> (sweet potato fries) or bunless <\/strong>(comes with a choice of salad: Thai Peanut Salad or Quinoa Kale with Vegannaise).<\/em><\/p>\n

Other main dishes you can try include sandwiches<\/strong>, Spinach and Squash Lasagna<\/strong>, Mushroom Penne Pasta<\/strong> and the Garden Burger<\/strong>. There’s even Mushroom Chips & Dip<\/strong>, Loaded Nachos<\/strong> (served with homemade salsa) and salad boxes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
Fun fact: All their dishes are served in eco-friendly take out boxes.<\/pre>\n
Gelato<\/span><\/h2>\n
Hazel flew to Italy to learn the art and science of gelato making. Everything is handcrafted in-house<\/strong> (personally by Hazel) using fresh ingredients and zero preservatives. They also serve vegan flavors.<\/p>\n
Il Fiore currently serves 13 \u00fcber rich and addicting flavors<\/strong>: Fior di Latte, Cashew Cream, Cappuccino, Pistachio Flan, Matcha, Green Yoghurt with Honey, Black Sesame, Hazelnut Stracciatella, Milk Chocolate and Pecan Pumpkin Pie. Their vegan flavors include: Dark Chocolate Ganache, Lemon Lime and the Mango Dragonfruit.<\/p>\n
Il Fiore gelatos are available in 4-oz cups and in pint-sized takeaway tubs<\/strong>. For takeaways, it is best to consume within two weeks. Taste before you order and if you can’t decide on one, you can get two flavors in one cup<\/strong>!<\/p>\n
FIOR DI LATTE + DARK CHOCOLATE GANACHE<\/strong><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Fun fact:<\/strong> Hazel is proud of her Fior di Latte, which she says is the base for all gelato flavors. So if you want to know if a gelateria is authentic and preservative-free, taste this flavor first.<\/pre>\n
BLACK SESAME + MANGO DRAGONFRUIT<\/strong><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For drinks, pair your meals with coffee, tea, yoghurt shakes, and\/or fresh juices.<\/p>\n
Fun fact:<\/strong> Il Fiore's coffee is a house blend by Department of Coffee, a roaster cafe in Quezon City.<\/pre>\n
PLAIN YOGHURT<\/strong><\/p>\n
Even the yoghurt is made in house!<\/p>\n
