FOMO was born in major cities and never moved out of its parents' place. Tastes are fleeting but winning is forever so if you can't decide where to go you should probably just stay home since spending four pence (Quid? idk here) on anything other than the objective gold standard of whatever you need right now feels tantamount to punching yourself in the mouth. Whether it's tapas or burgers or tacos (jk about tacos, this is 'Straya), your choices are staggering and they're also looking right back at you, watching you while you choose. The FOMO-obsessed-Dev in us all would rather spend hours finding The Best food truck than wasting one second consuming an underachieving taco.
I wanted to find the best Gelato in Sydney, and I did. It's a 9 minute walk from my apartment.
What're you doing tonight?
Cow and Moon Gelateria won Best Gelato in the World last year, beating two Italian compeditors for thier original flavor Mandorla Affogato. The winning recipe is comprised of generous chunks of caramelized almonds suspended in single-sourced espresso gelato. When the World's Best Gelato conincides with the World's Closest to Me Gelato, you really do feel like you've won something.I ordered a small scoop of Chocolate and a small scoop of the Affogato. Seldom is it reasonable to say a particular gelato is well seasoned, but it's totally true here. It has the vanilla and coffee, but the salt comes out too, letting everything shine a little bit brighter. Meanwhile, thier chocolate is super rich, and pleasingly dark but still very sweet. It sticks to your mouth and makes you thirsty.
The Affogato was good. Really good. I think I've thought about it every day this week. Mandorla Affogato, what are you up to tonight? Pls text me back. <3
