I just had gelato for the first time in Austin at a really great place called Teo's on 38th. Haven't seen any places in Houston though.
After 3 years of waiting, somebody FINALLY asked a gelato question for you to answer. Thanks for joining us.
It may be farther than you want to drive, but the best one I've EVER had was at the Cake Lady in Friendswood. We've served them at large parties before, and people always end up eating the crumbs off of the board until it's wiped clean. They are that good. http://www.thecakeladybakery.net/contact.html http://chefmoz.org/United_States/TX/Friendswood/Cake_Lady1003992952.html
You know I stopped smoking 2 weeks and 2 days ago. I've done fine on eating habits, but have had mad cravings for sweets. An italian cream cake sounds awesome at this moment.
I'll have to try this. I love Italian Cream Cake and I've got a b-day coming up in May....perfect time to sample it.
