| - I swung into Va Da Vie one Sunday after brunch at Cantina ("No thank you, kind waiter, I have no room for your dessert because I'm stuffing my face with gelato when I leave here"). I'd been eye-balling this place since it opened and my only regret, now that I've finally tried it, is that I waited so long.
The product: house made gelato that is cool, and creamy, and delicious. Not sure if you'll actually like a particular flavor? No problem, they give samples! The staff, who, if I recall correctly, were also the owners/ master-minds behind each flavor, were super nice. They seemed to have a genuine passion for what they did. They were eager to discuss the flavor options, and the ingredients that went into them. Most importantly, they didn't grow suspicious when I'd asked for my 10th sample (don't worry - I did actually buy some!).
The building is a tiny little thing, smack dab in the middle of the Park Road Shopping Center. They have a few seats, both indoor and out door, and with it being in the shopping center, parking is plentiful. With flavors that rotate to match the season, Va Da Vie is a place that I will surely be visiting again!
