Davvero Gelato in Lakeside, RVA is my favorite dessert and coffee (yes, you read right) shop in the whole city. They have new flavors and specials every week and the quality never fails. The flavors are so dynamic and awe-inspiring. Bonus points for the darling outside seating area that always hosts a lovely breeze and makes me feel like I’m on a beach getaway. My partner and I always want to try the specials- this week was the Mix-Mix sundae made with ube gelato, jack fruit, sweet red beans, sago, ube whipped cream, and rice crispies- but, we can never resist getting an affogato in addition. This one was made with their white coffee gelato, but the best one I’ve ever had (not just there, the best one EVER) was made with their pine nut and olive oil gelato. Fucking orgasmic, fr. Also, EVERYTHING IS VEGAN AND GLUTEN FREE! It’s a dream. ☁️
This was probably the best ice cream/gelato I have ever had in my entire life. The one I went to was in Paris, but there‘s like three in the U.S. I think so if you happen to be lucky enough to live near one GO GET SOME!!! Also they made the gelato in the shape of rose and put a macaron in the middle I think I reached nirvana when I ate it.
One of the best ice cream stores in Milan!! Located in what I would like to call the Diana-district (idk maybe it is actually the name of the neighbourhood). Anyway its in Porta Venezia just a little to the left. My litmus test for how good an ice cream store is is how unique their flavours are (or if they have any at all). This place has a flavour called Diana so I think it reasonably passes. (In any case a flavour that I believe is inspired by princess Diana is kunt.)
A toy store near me just opened a soft serve counter and they have a rotating “fruit fluff” vegan flavor. It’s the closest thing to dole whip I’ve had outside of a Disney park. This week was mango and it was sooo good. Also free sprinkles!!!
THINGS I CAN’T STOP MYSELF FROM EATING AS A PERSON WITH GLUTEN INTOLERANCE effects: usually only have 1/2-2 sticks, no immediate symptoms, might have an upset tummy 10/10 ⭐️
