grom_indo3. GROM
A dessert parlor specialty in gelato located in a prominent location of Jakarta, Sudirman Central Business District (SCBD). Grom will spoil you with swarming sky-scrapers buildings and beautifully arranged scenery. Grom’s story starts in 2003 with a gelateria of 25sm in the center of Turin, Italy, two friends, one dream: trying to do the best gelato in the world. Their products are made with such care, choosing the best ingredients that nature can offer (fresh high-quality milk, cage-free eggs, white cane sugar), without tricks or shortcuts. Grom has a curious, detail freak, agriculture nerd, and emotions towards their food; they have learned all they know by myriad trials and errors. And finally created an amazingly delicious and finest gelato.
Tasty menus to try from Grom:
- Crema Come Una Volta “The Way It Used To Be”: a lot of eggs, fresh cream, and a little grated lemon peel.
- Crema Di Grom: Grom signature flavor comes about from the meeting between Guido’s passion for the highest quality raw materials of pastry cream, Venezuela chocolate chips, and Grom Meliga biscuits.
- Stracciatella: One of the most traditional Italian gelato flavors, simple yet ingenious: fiordilatte and chocolate chips. To give the customers the pleasant tactile sensation of crunchy chocolate, they filter the chopped chocolate through a large-mesh sieve in order to get only the largest pieces (6 mm diameter!). They use Ecuadorian chocolate to enhance its strong and robust delicacy and so just right for a true love match with Fiordilatte.
Sorbet-Grom’s finest frozen dessert made from sugar-sweetened water commonly with fruit juice, fruit purée, wine, liqueur, or honey. They do not use flavorings, colorings, emulsifiers, or preservatives. They provide the best what nature can offer. Thus, their sorbet consists 55-60% real fruits, sparea water from Piedmont, Italy and white cane sugar. Pick your flavor:
- Mirtillo: Lots and lots of blueberries, Sparea® spring water, white cane sugar, and a pinch of carob seed flour: these are the ingredients in Grom’s refreshingly sharp blueberry sorbet, the ideal companion for those who seek in a simple sorbet the magic of a walk in the woods.
- Fragola: A great gelato classic, too often ruined by the use of coloring agents and aromatic pastes. The Mura Mura organic farm’s experimental strawberry beds allow Grom to find the best variety for a sorbet. Once they’ve found it, they ask the farmers they work with to grow it for them, and then they use loads: one kilo of Grom gelato contains half a kilo of strawberries. But watch out: the odd strawberry seed might get stuck in your teeth!
