Cool Hunting

Rosemary Honey Goat's Milk. Lemon Opal Basil Sorbetto. Carambola con Limon Verde. Intrigued yet? Stephanie Reitano was so inspired by trips to gelaterias in her husband's native Italy that she created her own in Philadelphia. Produced EVERY morning in small batches using only the freshest (and mostly local, seasonal and organic) ingredients. Stephanie's more than 250 flavors will intrigue, beguile and seduce you. Let's put it this way: I had to take a trip to Philly just to meet her. Sign up for the daily email list to see what flavors she's already made by the time you get out of bed. Fortunately her frozen love is available at Garden of Eden in New York City, and by mail order from her web site.
Stephanie's offering a special deal for Cool Hunting readers; mention Cool Hunting in the notes area and you'll receive one free pint with your order.

Laloo's Goat's Milk Ice Cream Company is hand made on a farm in Sonoma, CA where the 350 goats roam and graze freely in the majestic fields. These must be some very happy goats, because their milk, and the ice cream that is made from it, is outrageously good. Goat's milk is low in fat and low in lactose, which makes it easier to...
Spear tipped us off to these cookies. We buy a lot of cookies. We get sent a lot of cookies. We eat a lot of cookies at CH HQ. But we have never. Never. Tasted cookies like these. These righteous treats are geared for an adult palette. Though you can get 'em plain, we highly recommend the lightly-infused flavors: Lavender, Orange Blossom and Peppermint....
Highlights from the Chocolate Show, in NYC until 11/13/2005. Bissinger's has just launched a line of dark chocolate covered seeds and nuts they call Naturals. The Black Sesame Crunch is one of the best things I've tasted recently. Crunchy, savory, handmade...they are high in antioxidants and protein and low in sugar and carbs. The bag disappered within two minutes at CH HQ. Available online...
Chef Michel Nischan is a source of inspiration for me as both a cook and someone passionate about food (especially organically raised food), family and friends. His new book, (with the help of formidable food writer Mary Goodbody), Homegrown Pure and Simple is a wonderful combination of his love for his mother and her simple garden cooking, his experiences and skills as a world-class...
