Long days of class at CUPA never fails to help us work up and appetite AND make us feel entitled to a sweet treat. We most recently indulged at Grom, the Italian slow-food gelateria, at its Paris location in the 6eme arrondissement.
It was one of the hottest days of this strange Indian summer we've been having here in Paris (over eighty degrees in October?!), so the line at Grom was out the door. By the time we got there, they had already run out of many flavors. No matter, there were still plenty of options and thus many painstaking decisions to be made: small or medium? cup or cone? if I'm dead-set on the hazelnut, what second flavor will pair best with it?
Sadly, I've been so behind in my blogging that I've actually forgotten what flavors we got! But they look lovely, no? They tasted even more delicious!
It should be noted that Grom has an admirable philosophy, with a commitment to using the finest ingredients from around the world (Syrian pistachios, lemons from the Amalfi coast, spring water from Lurisia, and vanilla beans from Madagascar of course!). They recently launched an eco-friendly project called "Grom Loves World," and all their utensils and cups are biodegradable! They are also sensitive to those with wheat allergies and celiac disease, clearly marking their products if they contain wheat.
And guess what, friends! They have store locations in New York City AND Malibu! So my nearest and dearest on both coasts can enjoy, too!
