Terrible service in there – was lectured for asking for change today by somebody that worked there. Asked if I was going to buy something, which was understandable then didn’t stop and asked if I have ever been in there, then I said you act like I am breaking the law, he said almost! For asking for change. Then he asked if I had ever been in there before – I said yes, he said when? Like I was supposed to give him a day and time. Correct me if I am wrong but I was leaving just as much change as I would have taken… I understand some businesses don’t want to make change, and that’s ok but just say that you don’t and don’t turn away a person who was ONCE a customer.

Just because it’s a small business doesn’t mean people have to like it.

OK, JB, please copy and paste your above comment below this one. I will give you a pass here.

Not every positive comment is a plant, JB.

I lived in Dallas years ago when the stores first opened and their gelato is freaking awesome; lines were always out the door. Ice cream does not compare, and even Boccato, while very good, did not meet my expectations. It was Paciugo that prompted me to travel to Italy and enjoy the “real thing”, and as a long-time Paciugo lover, rest assured I will be indulging as often as I can. Happy Camper!

If you’re going to submit a plant, then at least put some effort into it to make it not sound like a plant…

Umm…no. Over 50% of the homes have been mowed down or added onto in a significant manner. The mixed media crap, etc. you don’t have faux stone, chain link fences and aluminum siding in g-town.

You mean Leonora’s? If you haven’t tried it, you’re cheating yourself. Strongly suggest the croissant and the American Brioche (which is really just croissant scraps smushed into a close approximation of a muffin … but SOOOOO good!).

Owner and staff are super nice to boot.

Exactly. Boccato has ‘em all beat in my book. Then Red Mango and Pinkberry tied for 2nd, with Larry’s a VERY distant 3rd (at which point I’d honestly rather just pick up something from TJ’s or WF frozen section).

Oooh – unless we can count the Sinplicity truck that comes around in the summer. Anyone ever try that thing? Un-friggin-believable!
