Dolcezza in Bloomingdale

So apparently, Dolcezza Artisanal Gelatos is venturing into Bloomingdale for 2010's debut Farmer's Market this Sunday, 5/16.

This is some very happy news indeed. I know I'm not the only one who finds Bloomingdale's Farmer's Market a little lackluster. The fruit is good and sometimes I'll find myself dipping into those cheese cups that are just begging to be nibbled. And I know it's a community event that brings people out of their houses and into the neighborhood for socializing. I do appreciate all this. But all in all, the market doesn't really thrill me or anything. I've never been amazed at the variety or quality of the food.

But with Dolcezza coming in I feel like my prayers have been answered. The way gelato just slides into your mouth and melts into your taste buds is enough to lure me to that mediocre market. I think I might be there every weekend for an ample portion of coffee and gelato. Nothing like sweets in the morning!

Get ready Dolcezza, for I am an ice cream fiend and I will be at the market on Sunday, mouth watering. But watch your back...this ain't no Georgetown.

"But watch your back...this ain't no Georgetown."

What is that supposed to mean? I will assume it means that in Bloomingdale, we are all down-to-earth, friendly neighbors looking to support the Farmer's Market. We are the place where you can tell who are the true "locals" by who says "hi" to you as you pass their stoop. We are the people who watch out for our neighbors, help them shovel out in a big snow, and make sure the elderly among us get safely onto the bus or have their meds filled. There are some of us who went through hell and back during the drug years and have turned Bloomingdale into a really nice place to live. Is it perfect? Not at all. It is a work-in-progress. But we as a community are working on it.

So yeah...if those are the type of people that you "need to watch your back" with, then by all means Dolcezza...be careful of us! After all, you wouldn't *want* to be pretentious, over-priced Georgetown where you have to watch your back such that the rich folk don't spit on you!
