Yolato, a new store selling yogurt gelato, is offering two chances for free dessert. Sign up [2] to receive news and get a coupon for a free regular-sized yolato at their West Village location. Or stop by their new Upper West Side store on March 9 and 10 14 for a taste. It should be delicious, since gelato [3] is like ice cream amplified to the nth degree, and real frozen yogurt is making a comeback in New York. For the record, that L.A. transplant, Pinkberry [4], tastes like grainy frozen ice milk because they reportedly use 7-UP [5].

In other small news, check out Avenue Food [7], an NYC blog with street credibility. Last Saturday, Sarah hosted a Wine, Cheese and Wii Party [8]. I don’t know what was better: the crusty mac and cheese, gruyere/caramelized onion pizza or the workout on the Wii. Sarah posted videos of us playing (it’s more entertaining watching the player than the TV screen itself). Unfortunately, the video of me had some technical difficulties.
