L'Arte del Gelato

»L'Arte Del Delicious

Went tonight for a sweet treat after reading the great reviews. Definitely a cool little place. After staring at the display case full of 20 or so flavors I was given a bunch of samples. I tried the Mascarpone (delicious and incredibly creamy), Panna Cotta (also delicious with a kind of caramel flavor), Coconut (great nutty flavor), Yogurt Frutti di Bosco (did not like this too sour).

I tried the Mascarpone (delicious and incredibly creamy), Panna Cotta (also delicious with a kind of caramel flavor), Coconut (great nutty flavor), Yogurt Frutti di Bosco (did not like this too sour).

I decided on the following: Pistachio, Gianduia (Chocolate Hazelnut), and Biscotti. All were incredible and played off each other nicely. My favorite was the Pistachio, but then again I am a Pistachio gelato/ice cream junkie. The Gianduia tasted just like a Ferrero Rocher and the Biscotti was wonderfully creamy tasting like cookies and milk. They also top off every cup with one free little spoonful of a random gelato of your server's choice and I got Stracciatella (chocolate chip). Also very good but with so many interesting flavors I would not order this as a top choice.

Among the other flavors I sampled from my friends orders were the Mirtillo (Blueberry which was super good and refreshing definitely will get this next time), Cherry Vanilla (good but kind of standard nothing special), Olive Oil (special flavor of the month- wow really surprising and it had a good salty kick at the end of it!), Mint (didnt like it but I do not like Mint so whatever).
So many more flavors that I want to try! Overall very delicious. Next up is Grom on Friday so I will be back with my comparison.-COLLAPSE / REPLY (by steakrules85, created March 28, 2010)
