Food | Carmela Ice Cream

Holy artisan ice cream, Batman! When I checked out DVF's Journey of a Dress Exhibition in LA last month with my friend Trang, she also took me to one of her fave ice cream shops, Carmela Ice Cream. Carmela started selling ice cream and sorbet at local farmers markets in 2007 and has been creating innovative and delicious ice cream flavors ever since, which are now being sold at 2 storefront, 2 farmer's market, and 6 specialty food store locations, see where here!
We stopped into the west third street location down the ways from The Grove shopping center; Trang and I were excited to get to sample various flavors, which, when you look at the menu, you can see why. I ended up getting a 1/2 Lavender Honey & 1/2 Rosemary with Toasted Pine Nuts SINGLE scoop and enjoyed the ice cream at the front seating area while the late afternoon Los Angeles traffic passed by. The flavors were just fragrant enough for my taste palette without being overwhelming, and I always get so tickled with happiness to try unique, and gourmet eats! Have you had really good ice cream lately?
