the chronicles of fatty: frost

frost is a gelato place that started in tucson, arizona and has spread throughout arizona, new mexico and CHICAGO! it is by far some of the best gelato i have ever had, with good reason. the main chef (would you call it  a chef?) was brought over from italy to teach the other employees and owners how to make the perfect gelato. i believe it has greatly paid off.

not only is the gelato delicious, but it wayyy healthier than ice cream--coming in at about 2.5 grams of fat per scoop versus 14 grams of fat in ice cream. not that it really matter to me, i go for taste value (and lucky for me, i really like salad. haha) anyways, if you can find one of these gems of a gelato shop, i highly recommend checking them out.

the chronicles of fatty: zinburger

splitting my time between three cities if often tenuous. however, i get to enjoy really good food in all three. tucson, being my least favorite of my frequented places, does have a handful of really good places to eat. one of them being zinburger. 

zinburger is a gourmet burger place, which offers options for vegans and vegetarians as well as carnivores. their burgers are juicy and delicious. they have amazing parmesan zucchini fries, but their regular and sweet potato fries are just average. they also have amazing milkshakes, its no fred 62s--for all you LA people--but a limited selection. each week, they offer a different special burger, and each month, a special shake flavor.

i would recommend zinburger to anyone traveling to tucson--and if you are traveling to tucson, i am sorry. its a rather small town. not my favorite--or to anyone from here who hasn't eaten there yet.
