To be honest, I have no interests on trying any of the savory dishes at Roppongi Sabo (六本木茶房). This kind of gimmicky localized Japanese food tends to turn me off instantly, but I am here for one thing: their salt caramel gelato (海鹽焦糖雪糕, $32.8). I am a big fan of salt caramel everything, and after I read this in a magazine I have been meaning to try it out.

I am a big fan of salt caramel everything, and after I read this in a magazine I have been meaning to try it out. The gelato came in a cone with a standing holder, and the triangular shaped top was appropriately Japanese. The texture was also true to traditional Japanese gelato which is lighter and more airy than Italian gelato or American ice cream but still remain creamy and slightly elastic. My biggest pet peeve of salt caramel ice cream is often the indiscernible savory flavor, and I was very impressed by the noticeable salty taste blended with the sweet milky base. The slight hint of caramel may not be strong enough for caramel fans with a big sweet tooth, but for me it was just right without being too cloying. A great balance of sweetness and saltiness was achieved in this simple serving, and it certainly met my expectation.
The smiley face is just for this salt caramel gelato. Consider it your own risk to try anything else at this place .
