Mall snack

Oatmeal cookie gelato, Miabella Gelato and Coffee

Sometimes, you have to shop. You don’t want to go to the mall, but your friend wants that one particular thing and it’s not your birthday so you go. Reward yourself with a little gelato ($3.75 for a small) over at Market Square at Arden Fair. There, you’ll find Roseville-based Miabella Gelato’s satellite location. It’s not destination-worthy gelato, but for a mall snack? It’s quality. I especially like the oatmeal cookie flavor, spiked with cinnamon and cookie chunks. It reminds me of the uber-processed, icing-coated versions of my childhood—in a good way, of course. 1735 Arden Way, http://miabellagelato.com.
