DESSERT: NOLA Daily Sorbet (US$6.50). In Italian cuisine, there are two types of ice creams. One is called "gelato" (also known as "ice cream" around the world) that contains dairy ingredients (such as milk and cream). The other one is called "sorbetto" (or known as "sorbet") that does not contain dairy ingredients. The reason I ordered sorbet is to reduce the intake of cholesterol usually found in dairy ingredients.
