From November, CBD pasta palace Marameo and Adam D’Sylva’s BOCA gelato are coming together for Marameo & Chill, bringing a sundae kind of love to Melbourne with a wild series of limited-time-only ice cream creations, frozen cocktails and big spoons all around.
“Recipe testing for this was a particularly good time — I think I’ve eaten my weight in ice cream in the past month,” says Marameo owner Michael Badr.|
“Marameo & Chill is all about guilty pleasures. We’re referencing all the icons we unashamedly love, and bringing back other old-school flavours to get the attention they deserve.” The Marameo & Chill menu takeover will include:
Bountyful ($14)
Coconut gelato sandwich, chocolate cookie sponge
No hunting necessary. Just the bounty you forgot you love.
Marabon ($14)
Ricotta ice cream sandwich, strawberry, cinnamon, citrus, chocolate, pistachio -$14
A cannoli and Maxibon elope to Sicily.
Pavvy B ($16)
Yogurt ice cream sundae, pavlova crunch, strawberry drizzle, berries – $16
Your dad’s favourite dessert — and he’s right, too.
The Baci-lor ($16)
Ferrero Rocher ice cream, Baci, chocolate fudge, hazelnuts
The ultimate European seduction.
Drinks-wise, patrons will sip on LimonCHILLo, Marameo’s answer to the Sgroppino, frozen watermelon Cosmos and more. Transformed with Euro-leaning vibes, the Marameo terrace is the best spot to enjoy ‘Tivo Time from 4pm-6pm daily, with $10 wines, $12 slushies and $15 cocktails.
Marameo & Chill will run throughout November and December, promising cold margs, hot fudge and the right type of vanilla.
