Alex Rainert: The Peanut Butter Cup sundae is coffee bean ice cream (hell yeah!) w/ peanut sauce, hot fudge, whip cream and chocolate shavings. It's a heap of killer flavors that go great together.

Serious Eats: At the first US outpost of this Italian gelato shop, you'll find excellent gelato in sweet and savory flavors using local, organic produce, plus baked goods and some savory items.
Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guide: This Italian-originating restaurant, cafe, bakery and gelato shop, with beautiful design and a pretty, peaceful backyard, has landed on Park Slope's 5th Ave. The house roasted espresso is gnarly tho.
