Uncle Louie G's.



After my Nick's visit, I wandered the neighborhood in search for some post-pizza sweetness and found this gem. Probably one of the best names for a store I've seen in a while. Where from the title you would think they sold sausages and raviolis, they sold the goodness.

Walked into the joint hoping to find a Tony or Vinny, but saw someone who would normally man a 7-11 in a Simpsons episode. But after listening to him telling someone in perfect local dialect to go fuck himself, I stayed and looked through the selections of the day. Most or all of the Ice Cream/ Gelato/ Italian Ice flavors are homeade with hilarious names. I picked a wafer coned scoop of "Paulie Wallnuts" -sort of a Maple Walnut flavor which closed out my day in Forest Hills.
