Mama Heladera
The only gelateria anywhere in this research that makes ice cream out of other people's memories. You leave a story in a letterbox and it comes back as a flavour. One new flavour every week, five fixed, four rotating — and a maker who treats how taste is perceived as the actual subject rather than a garnish.
What to order
This week's new flavour. There is a different one every week and it will not be there twice.
