And I had Vanilla and Pistachio when there in Feb. OOOOmmm...... I like the idea that you pick the size and then can have as many flavors as you like..unlike the usual 1 scoop of this...and to have a second flavor you have yo have a second scoop...then again...that's okay too ;D

Fine, that is just fine! Now that I don't have a NYC trip planned, an Amorino opens up there and in Greenwich no less! Sigh...where was it last February when I was last there (of course, as I recall the weather was not making me yearn for gelato just then). I love their coffee flavored ice cream (which I came to learn had real coffee beans...great if you want to glow/read all night!). Someone mentioned pistachio too...bet I would like that as well.

I may have to make it into the Village but I'll call first to see if they have chestnut that day. If not I'll have to wait a week until I get to Paris! I love their pistachio too.

I think our next NYC GTG should include a visit to Amorino. Well... I think we were decided on Napoleon in the w. 50th's but there are places in the Village if folks want to be closer to Amorino....

Geordy - didn't mean to imply we should change the venue. I might leave room for dessert though. And the walk from midtown to Greenwich Village would burn enough calories to have an extra scoop!
