I keep going back to Rosso hopeful (because it gets hyped up all the time) and yet I always end up leaving disappointed with what I have ordered.
Every Chai latte/iced chai I’ve had just tastes watered down and bland.
Last night a friend got a cookie and it was the greasiest oil filed hunk of carb I have ever actually tasted (that wasn’t my own baking fail) from a coffee shop. It was so greasy that we had to use napkins to clean our fingers. And we split the cookie four ways because no one actually wanted to finish it and yet didn’t want it to go to waste.
Though I do think that if the cookie had been made properly, not in a pan and with significantly less oil/butter/ghee/shortening (whatever was used), it probably would have been a more enjoyable cookie.
I personally ordered a candy cane hot chocolate, expecting a rich, chocolatey experience with a subtle flavour of peppermint. However instead I was met with a lukewarm dissatisfying and underwhelming drink dominated by the prominent taste of watered down warm dairy milk. There was maybe a mild hint of peppermint and the hot chocolate. But I had to actually try and look for the flavours as all I could honestly taste was just the milk. The foam art on the top was lovely, however it did not make up for the disappointing flavour. I paid almost $6 for a drink that I didn’t even end up finishing.
I believe this will probably be my last time willingly spending money at a Rosso franchise due to the poor quality of the drinks and food.
Maybe the coffees are better, but as someone who doesn’t drink coffee- Rosso needs to up their game. It’s pretty sad when Tim hortons makes a better hot chocolate than a bougie cafe.
