An Affogato is an Italian beverage that consists of a scoop of vanilla ice cream submerged with a stream of steaming hot espresso.
Leave it to Big Gay Ice Cream Shop owners Doug Quint and partner Bryan Petroff, both, partners in life and business, to pimp out the traditional beverage into a Mexican Affo’gay’to.
Honorable mention:
I still crave their palette teaser, The Salty Pimp. A sinful amalgamation of vanilla soft serve drizzled with dulce de leche, peppered with sea salt, dipped into a vat of molten chocolate which then solidifies into a hard chocolate shell. Phew!
