If it’s in the New York Times that seals the deal. I have actually gotten sick lately at restaurants they have reviewed positively. They will write about any trend as though they have been doing this their whole lives.
Let’s face it people if we are stepping to the counter we will try the tea or bean ice cream maybe once.
Then it’s back to peach, pralines and cream, cherry vanilla, Rocky Road, black cherry, French vanilla, etc.
And the only place other than the US that has a well developed and delicious ice cream culture is Italy.
Nuff said.
