I have always wanted to try this place because I liked the name of the shop which comes from Gulliver's travels.

However its location is quite far from the city and there is now another shop located at Mikiki.

Although with the convenience of modern travel today, I was lazy to travel here compared with Gulliver's adventurous travels to various cities in the novel.

Anyway, when I got here, I was greeted with the B and L logo composed of the illustrations of the ice-creams that they sell.
It shows giant icecreams (Brobdingnag) and dwarf icecreams (Lilliput) arranged like a compass which correlates to travelling and matches the Gulliver theme with waves beneath the name of the shop as if it were a ship.

From the reviews there is taro ice-cream, so I ordered that but it was not available that day so I had to order something else.
The flavours are listed on the board on the right which is quite confusing because not all of them were available.
It turns out that the available flavours have an icecream shaped magnet stuck to it which I thought was part of the decoration.
Anyway quite alot of the flavours I wanted to try were not available that day such as taro and white chocolate, so I just got the tutti frutti.

I saw these colourful tiny cups which have coloured liquid inside that freeze in the freezer so that when you take them out you can pour alcohol shots in there to chill it.

The colour cups were tiny so I ordered it thinking there would not be much ice-cream, but the portion was quite big.
These cups can be taken home and it was thoughtful of them to give me a plastic bag to carry the dirty cup home.

As well as ice-cream they sell ice-cream for space (space foods), ice lollies and mini ice-cream flowers which come in a box with small pieces of ice-cream shaped flowers in it.

Tutti Frutti ice-cream
It was different to the tutti frutti taste I was expecting, but there was a strong pineapple taste and the texture of the ice-cream was really icy and creamy at all.
