Primo Italian Ice Cream = Good Life

Paciugo Gelato is a decadent Italian ice cream habit you can't feel guilty about, it's 70% less fat than those kind you find in your grocery store. I have been a Paciugo Gelato addict since this caffe opened. They have the most extensive gelato flavor selection. Everytime I go there, which is almost everyday, I discover new flavors. It's like a scavenger hunt for new flavors I have not experienced yet. It's a good thing that Paciugo serves their gelato in a cup that can hold more than three flavors. I love it, I can have all my favorite flavors, that would be Mediterranean Sea Salt Caramel, Pistachio, and Brittny's Caramel Apple. BTW, the caramel apple was named after one of the owners, Brittny. I was told she invented this flavor. Wow, the owner is also a foodie. 
The best thing about Paciugo Gelato, it is made with milk, not butterfat or cream, this means Paciugo Gelato is 70% less fat than regular ice cream. OK, I'm not the only one who feels this much love for Paciugo, see their Yelp reviews at http://www.yelp.com/biz/paciugo-gelato-caffe-hermosa-beach

Ice Cream or Gelato?

A British comedian named Joel Sanders visited Hermosa Beach last summer and fell bloody heads over heals over Paciugo Gelato Caffe.  He loved the flavors...but for laughs he made this video.  Don't let his brand of humor fool you, he loved every spoonful of all the flavors he tasted.  He did answer his question, is it ice cream or gelato?  Of course it Paciugo Gelato
