Great Gelato!!!

I am a firm believer in the majestic powers of chocolate. And when it comes in the form of creamy gelato in a little cup with a tiny spoon, those magical powers are even all more consuming. I like my gelato and I my chocolate, I just swoon over any establishment that offers me the choice of three different chocolates when I order, and this is exactly what you should expect at Grom (a gelato shop on the corner of Bleecker and Carmine in the West Village) - chocolate, dark chocolate or extra-dark chocolate.

when the pretty collegiate inquired to my taste I boldly went forward and chose the extra-dark chocolate and am glad I did. The picture taken on my phone does not do it justice. But take it from someone who knows their chocolate (and believe me I do), this gelato is a perfect balance of intense dark creamy frozen chocolatey goodness, minus the bitter aftertaste that so many dark chocolate bars tend to have. West Village story short, definitely a NYC food to eat and love.

Anyone know those shiny loafer shoes with the tassles? I want a pair. I think they're Autumn lesbian chic.
