The Boston Globe came out with a lovely article about chocolate tasting that featured The Tasty Show. Here's an excerpt:
Gina Medaglia decided she wanted to have a party for her staff. The chef and owner of Dalias Bistro & Wine Bar in Brookline hired Dana Zemack, owner of the Tasty Show. Zemack brings everything with her, including palate cleansers (watermelon, berries, cookies, sorbet) as well as 15 chocolate samples and rating cards. ''Chocolate is like a story," says Zemack. ''It starts one place and ends another." Zemack encourages Medaglia's guests to smell and savor their samples, challenging them not to chew.

About the Ice Cream

About the Handmade Ice Cream Cones
The ice cream cones, first of all, are not just any ol' ice cream cones. They are handmade by Dana Zemack of the Tasty Show and Andrew Urbanetti of Lumiere Restaurant. They are in mini size - so that guests can eat lots of them. And most importantly, they aren't just plain waffle cones, they are infused with interesting, innovative, and sometimes surprising ingredients.
