Food in any setting is all about the experience had while in eating it. Here I go sharing another experience with you, this time its FOOOOOOD.
I found love at Amorino in downtown Raleigh, NC. Let me tell you about the dessert with the inimitable flavor.
This was beautiful to my taste buds. This treat is one scoop of caramel gelato and a scoop of “L’Inimitable” on a caramel waffle with salted butter caramel drizzled over the warm waffle and Italian ice cream. Also there is chocolate sprinkled on top the whip cream. L’Inimitable is a mix of hazelnut and chocolate.
Unlike your regular salt and sweet treats, the best part was the saltiness was almost a tickle of an after taste. You’ll pretty much just jump right into the sweet and cold and warm contrast then the saltiness makes a small statement right after the swallow. That was just right for me.
The only thing I wished for in this dessert was a little more attention to making the flavor and textures blend more. I wished I experience more chocolate and caramel and salt in every bite. Maybe chocolate flakes could be an option to add.
Speaking of add ons, I would’ have liked to have been told that the drizzle of caramel and whipped cream would cost me .85 cent more. Not making a big deal about that but I just would have like it to have been said or asked as an extra step in customer service. However, the service I did get was very patient, knowledgeable and genuinely kind and timely, thats an A in my book.
