Grom: A Little Scoop of Heaven … 

For those who have tasted the divine gelato d’Italia the “made in the USA” ice cream will never quite compare.  Grom, one of the most popular gelaterias in Milan www.grom.it/eng came to New York City flying slightly under the radar…but not for long.  You can now pick up a scoop of the best gelato from Milan at two locations in Manhattan.  A piece in the food section of the New York Times reveals that Grom is not just another imitation:

“Where do you get your lemons from?” The answer: “Amalfi.” Check!“Where do you get your pistachios?” Answer “From Bronte.” (A town in eastern Sicily famous for their flavorful, pea-green pistachios.) Check, again!
