Although it appears Desyree has been getting more well-deserved time off than usual lately, two previous weekend visits finding the shop manned by one of her ever-pleasant assistants, Gelatology continues to shine as brightly today as it did when originally opening on South Rainbow, the flavors as well as the textures easily better than any other in Sin City with creativity that warrants national acclaim.
Still an anticipated daily fixture on Social Media, Chef Alberganti’s live-stream of unique flavors set to music with an occasional view of Baked Goods in progress always enticing, as well, it was to several new flavors that patrons were treated on Saturday just after opening, the Chicken Cup o’ Noodle a spot-on riff of something that seems as though it could have only arisen from a drunken bar bet while the Cinnamon Churro and Nutella Bomboloni played on recent baking escapades, the sort of thing not uncommonly seen in fine dining these days.
Eventually making tough choices, the temptation always present to dramatically over-order, it was with a blend of Churros to Balsamic and Figs that tastes trended with beautiful complementation, a fresh-baked Chocolate Chip Toffee Cookie still featuring slightly molten morsels while the Honey Comb Brittle shattered with a whole lot of flavor, dissolving slowly into a sticky Caramel-like substance that threatens to loosen any fillings that might be present.
Sitting and enjoying the work of a place that continues to innovate and evolve even though any semblance of local competition exists far in the rearview, it was at the behest of the young clerk that the table taste-test three fresh-from-the-fryer Bombolini in a small clamshell, the flavor almost identical to that of the frozen concoction previously tested and completely oilless beneath Granulated Sugar harboring a smooth Hazelnut and Chocolate center.
