A Sunday Sundae

Ordered a small sundae at Picco's in South Boston: mint chocolate flake, hot fudge, whipped cream, and nuts. Was expecting something slightly above average. I was most happily blown away by goodness.

My mint chocolate flake had a nice balance of spearmint to peppermint - very "green", very minty. The chocolate flakes melted easily on my tongue. Very good! The hot fudge was bittersweet and actually warm. The whipped cream was the genuine article. The "nuts" were toasted hazelnuts dipped in dark chocolate and rolled in powdered sugar. AMAZING. A perfect sundae for a perfect Sunday. I was glad to try it.

They had pizza and calzones on the menu, in addition to salads. My salad was over-priced for the size, and didn't have as many beets as I'd have liked, but I enjoyed the toasted hazelnuts. I'd say this place is best patronized for its desserts, beer offerings, and pizza/calzones.
