il laboratorio del gelato - Lower East Side, NYC

il laboratorio del gelato - 95 Orchard St. (btwn Broome & Delancey)

I went here after work since it was only 2 blocks away. They have over 100 exotic flavors listed, such as thai chili chocolate, tarragon with pink pepper, greek yogurt, and… guinness(?!). But their retail location is a small window shack, and they carry only 10 random flavors each week. I had the espresso flavor, which was smooth, creamy, yet pungent. The tiny espresso chips melt in your mouth after the gelato, so the taste lingers. Loved it! Can’t wait to go back next week to try a new batch of flavors. =)

Has anyone been here before? If so, What flavors would you recommend? If not, which ones seem the most enticing? =9

I LOVE GELATO :D

Have you tried any other flavours since?
I'd love to have:

red bean
dark chocolate
vanilla saffron

And the whole bunch in the next group!
honey lavender*
acacia honey
corbezzolo honey
rose petal

I'm curious abt rice tho - I imagine it'd be a very smooth "wholesome" taste.

I've just looked at the list of flavours and all I can say is how would you choose!
I would go for all with either Chocolate,Coffee,nuts or Booze!
Is this available in United Kingdom, If not it should be! I want some!!!
