Eater Dallas: Rose Shaped Gelato Heads to Plano’s Legacy West

Amorino Gelato will soon open its third Texas outpost at the bustling Legacy West development.  The shop is an Italian creamery known for its cones of rose-shaped gelato. Amorino made its Texas debut in the upscale River Oaks district of Houston. The creamery followed-up with a second outpost in Fort Worth’s Shops at Clearfork early this year. The third and newest arrival will open at 7700 Windrose Avenue from local franchisee German Rodriguez, who also owns the Fort Worth location. Amorino has built a brand on gelato made from whole milk and fresh fruit, free from artificial ingredients. The brand has apparently been successful as Amorino now operates outposts across Europe, the Middle East, North America, and Africa. They have even opened shops on some of the tiny islands dotting Africa’s coasts. About two dozen flavor options can be crafted into a rose shape and finished with a macaron. Flavors include hazelnut, passionfruit, melon, caramel, chocolate, and raspberry to name a few. Options also come in vegan varieties, plus there are milkshakes and sorbet drinks on offer. Amorino’s Plano location is currently under construction with an estimated opening of early December. Stay tuned for its official debut date and hours of operation.
