What I Had: Nutella Frozen Yogurt
What It Cost: $3.50
Where I Was: Upper East Side
Nutella. Frozen. Yogurt. Who knew such a wonderful thing existed? And at only 90 calories, it can't get any better. Tasti D-Lite has "hundreds" of flavors but each day, six of them are available to you. Today's flavors all sounded good but if Nutella is ever available, it's a rule that you must have it. I would call ahead and ask what the six daily flavors are before going, but that's just me.

What I Had: Salty Pimp
What It Cost: $5.00
Where I Was: East Village
In short...best ice cream I've ever had, possibly EVER.
A few blocks before I even got to the ever-so-famous ice cream shop, I would see person after person walk by with an ice cream cone and a face that just said "there's a party in my mouth right now." There was a bit of a line to even get inside, but it moved fast and before I knew it, the words "I want a Salty Pimp" were coming out of my mouth-- a phrase I thought I'd never thought I'd say. The whole thing is just genius if you ask me and I think it'd be just as busy if this cone was the ONLY thing on their menu. Go get yourself a Salty Pimp and see for yourself!

This is probably the only place that I've been to that really enforces the "no one over 12 years old" can have a kid-sized portion rule. Nevertheless, their small size, also called Wink, is relatively... well, small. Very convenient on-the-go ice cream stop, and very delicious!
