Grom Gelato


So this week in my quest for the city's best gelato I went to Grom on (Bleeker and 6th Ave.)

It was delicious. It was simultaneously creamy and watery, but it worked. I tried the Extra Noir and Pistachio. The chocolate was rich and fruity and the pistachio was spot on. It wasn't cheap by any stretch. It was a good mix of classic (so far L'arte Del Gelato is the clear winner with that one) and experimental (Il Laboratorio del Gelato holds down that title). Overall the flavors were subtle.

There was one flavor that was a hands down winner; Melon. It was uncanny. It kind of scared me to have such in intense experience in a public place. If you are in the neighborhood you must stop in for some of that.
