Ice Cream  went to shake shack on recs for hamburg and fries
from this board - total success. the shake burger was just
perfect. i ordered mine without the shack sauce (it was a
calories decision) but took a bite of my partners who had the
burger with shack sauce (it was a partner's perogative) OMG - my
delicious burger palled before my eyes - next time i'm doing the
whole burger with shack sauce.  While there i also ordered the
frozen custard ... i've heard about frozen custard but never had
it. I was wowed. really quite delicious - i think creamer than
ice cream. which got me thinking - does anyone know the
difference between Frozen Custard / Gelato / and Ice Cream? i
looked up Gelato in Websters and i got "Italian Ice Cream" - not
helpful. I'm wondering is one less fattening or more "healthy"
than the other? Now i'm definitely going to have to try Grom's
want to compare the Gelato to the Frozen Custard.    1. Click to
