La Divina

I was caught off guard by the quality of La Divina gelato.  We'd read in a local paper that it had won best gelato/ice cream in New Orleans several years in a row.  But being from New York, skepticism is always the name of the game, huh?  Well, right off the bat there was something I really liked about Divina - the 2 oz bamino size for $2.  Everyone wins! It's the amount of gelato that you need.  And it's adorable.  Taylor went for the créme brûlè; I opted for the blueberry basil.  We could not decide which was better.



His was creamy, eggy and luxurious.  Bits of crunchy sugar were swirled throughout.  Mine was summery and rich.  The basil mixed with blueberry created an entirely new flavor sensation.  You must go and try for yourself.  Or, if you've been, what's your favorite flavor?
