Via Gelato
I don't even like ice cream because it's too cold (I have a cat's tongue) and it vanishes so quickly seemingly without a trace. But I loved this Gelato. I don't know the difference between ice cream and gelato and I don't need to know to enjoy this treat. I got an affogato which is gelato-salted caramel with espresso (Less cold and also get my caffeine fix). This new place on 12th avenue is very San Francisco Hip/Chic. In spite of the global warming freezing (72 day/61 night) temperatures in Paradise there are long lines outside Via Gelato. Well worth it.
The last time I had Gelato was in Rousillon Provence (France). They are famous for their Lavender Gelato which tasted like soap.
Roasted Halibut with Pea and Mint Salad
I am at heart a Pescatarian and love all seafood. The Halibut should have been delicate, sweet and flaky but overcooked (Next time bake for 15 instead of 18 min) was tough and chewy. Live and Learn ($40 lesson). The marinate was simple and healthy lemon juice, olive oil garlic, salt and pepper. The mint salad was described as "Ok" by most in the family. No big winners here tonight.
