If you find yourself in Miyakojima, there is one destination that simply cannot be missed: Ricco Gelato. This shop serves up some of the most impressive gelato I have ever tasted, so good that I found myself returning two days in a row.
🌿 The Unbeatable Pistachio Experience
While their menu boasts a variety of creative flavors, the pistachio is the undisputed star. Yes, it comes with a 100-yen premium, but the depth of flavor and velvety richness make every extra coin worth it. It is an intense, nutty experience that stays true to the quality of the ingredients.
🍦 The Artisanal Handmade Cone
The experience is elevated by their house-made cones. The texture is perfectly crisp, providing a savory, toasted aroma that balances the sweetness of the gelato beautifully. It’s rare to find a shop that puts as much care into the vessel as they do into the scoop itself.
💬 Verdict
Ricco Gelato is a true Miyakojima gem that sets a high bar for island treats. It is perfect for anyone looking to cool down after a day at the beach. And for those of us living in Tokyo, the good news is that they have a location in Monzen-nakacho, which is officially on my list for my next local outing!
