🎉 MARKHAM PICKS with Dr. Adrian from Modern Health Clinic !

Huge thank you to Adrian for being down to kick off this series. He’s genuinely one of the kindest people you’ll meet, and it was so much fun filming this together.

Got invited to Love Gelato’s exclusive tasting event, “A Sweet Soirée,” this week and wow 🍦

We got to try their new soft-serve gelato, some absolutely HUGE Italian sourdough sandwiches (every single element was flavorful), and of course their classic gelato that so many people in Markham already know and love.

We also got a bit of an inside scoop from the owners on what’s coming next 👀 Including new menu items, retail products available in local grocery stores, and even a second location opening soon!

Huge thank you to for the invite and for letting us get a sneak peek at what’s ahead ❤️

Have you tried Love Gelato before? What’s your go-to flavour? 👇
