via gelato.

most of you know, my favorite part of eating is dessert.  it's definitely a curse, but my health depends on it, but frick.  i LOVE it.

recently, there's been talk about this "gelato truck".  to be honest, i've actually never been a lover of food trucks - i cannot manage my life and follow all the trucks and hunt them down.. i don't have time for that.  but this gelato truck, called VIA gelato seemed very cute and fresh.  she's definitely a believer of supporting local - i love that.

my friend lindsey (who also writes for the honolulu pulse) and i finally got a chance to go last week.  the pastel yellow truck sitting right in front of kahala mall.  



what flavors do you want to try??

isn't her truck so cute??

this is lindsey - doing an impromptu interview with melissa bow, the owner and creator of via GELATO.

i asked for something different - i asked for the makaha mangoes sorbetto and brown butter vanilla together.  melissa wasn't sure if it was going to work because of the consistency of the sorbetto, but i handled the home made waffle cone and scoops fairly well.  no drip, no mess!  all sweet goodness!
(p.s. her home made waffle cone is divine - it has the texture of those japanese cookies, light but firm, full of flavor!)




(side note: yes, my shoulder is peeling and yes, it's ugly.  yes, i should use sunscreen.)

i even bought a pint of makaha mangoes sorbetto for home.  it's mine and i'm going to eat it slowly so i can have it forever!

for flavors and location on where she's going to be, follow melissa on twitter @viagelato or on instagram @viagelatohawaii

thanks melissa for fulfilling my love for dessert with your home made deliciousness!!
