The Cumpari’s Seduction

The North Road neighbourhood in Coquitlam has slowly transformed into a Korean town. Amongst Korean restaurants and groceries erects a free standing building that presents a totally different flavour. Welcome to Cumpai’s Gelato & Caffe, the sweetest sensation in the Tri-city area.

Who would have guessed a 2-storey dessert house on North Road in Coquitlam could be filled up night every night? Seems like what it takes is the Cumpari’s Gelato & Caffe sign; and customers of young and old simply flow in. The contemporary architectural design is no doubt an attractive draw, and the garden patio simply adds allure.

However, no matter how handsome the exterior is and how stylish the interior looks, the quality of food is still the key, after all, everybody who looks for good food value often starts with ‘good taste’. Here at Cumpari’s, every piece of pastry is a piece of palatable art!

Saro is the Pastry Chef; he came to Cumpari’s with 20 years plus pastry making experiences. Every single pastry is a product of Cumpari’s. With around 30 seductive varieties flirting with your sweet tooth, the decision making process often takes longer than you think.

1. Gianduia Chocolate Mousse

Giandula is the traditional Italian chocolate making method. Almond and hazelnuts added texture to the chocolate moose, giving it an extra layer of satisfaction.

2. Strawberry Raspberry Mousse

Who can say no to fresh strawberry and raspberry? The silky smooth mouse is a sexy layer of pinkish pudding caressed by chocolate flakes.

3. New York Cheesecake

The golden jelly with a touch of real mango lying on top of the intense flavoured cheesecake will end the journey for any cheesecake seekers.

4. Pistachio Gelato

Yes, it is pistachio, everyone’s favourite nut, now in the form of a irresistible gelato!

4. Lemon Gelato

The perfect balance of citrus and sugar flavour makes an ordinary lemon gelato the most popular gelato in Cumpari’s.

4. Cappuccino

A perfect cup of cappuccino in an Italian Caffe that can wake up all your senses, need I say more?
