L’ibisco Karuizawa — Restaurant in Karuizawa

really yummy gelatos - it was definitely worth the walk all the way here 🥰

pistachio - wow this was so nutty and smooth! one of the top pistachio gelatos i’ve had for sure. i’ll be getting this again if i return!

Came here on a rainy day. There wasn't many people on this day, which I was happy about. I ordered a cup of caramel ice cream. IT WAS SO YUMMY. There are a few tables inside but also benches and places to sit outside, right in front of the building.

Best Gelato ice cream I’ve ever had! The gelato here is freshly made multiple times a day with great quality milk! It’s not too sweet and very light and unique, I haven’t found a taste like this before. You can definitely feel the freshness! The owners are the nicest people on the planet and passionate about what they do! The place is super cute, I love the atmosphere in the winter, watching the snow through the giant glass window. I’ll have to come back...
