Stelios Birbas opens new homemade gelato bar in Adelaide

·

The team behind an award-winning pizzeria in Western Adelaide, “Pizza Meccanica”, has launched a new homemade gelato bar right next to it.

Gelato Meccanica just opened in Bowden, located in the same converted warehouse on Hawker St.

According to the Advertiser, Stelio Birbas, the owner of Meccanica, graphic designer and car enthusiast, described the eatery as an “old school, authentic” gelato bar using the same “timeless philosophies” employed in Italy.

“Our goal was to craft a product unlike any other, aligning with the same principles we apply to our renowned Neapolitan pizzas,” he said.

“By exclusively using distinctive and fresh ingredients we are genuinely passionate about, we aim to share our philosophy with everyone, confident that they would embrace it with the same enthusiasm.”

There are flavours including traditional favourites such as pistachio, plus strawberries and cookies, espresso and lemon sorbet.

There’s also a “Boozy Gelato” range featuring alcohol-infused gelato.

“We’re thrilled about embarking on this new venture and eagerly anticipate everyone’s visit to taste and enjoy our gelato,” he said.
