Zsa's Gourmet Ice Cream eyes Center City; Night Market first

Gatsby doesn't typically ride through Center City, but he can be found with Danielle Jowdy (above) at farmers markets in Jenkinstown, Media, Skippack and the Navy Yard. No, we’re not talking about Fitzgerald's mystery man — Gatsby is the nickname of Jowdy's light blue truck that doubles as home for Zsa's Gourmet Ice Cream. Peanut butter, lavender honey and chocolate truffle are but a few of the ice cream flavors she churns; Jowdy sources local ingredients and makes all her sauces from scratch. Even more tempting: She whips up homemade ice cream sandwiches (vanilla with cinnamon chocolate chip oatmeal cookies; peanut butter with double chocolate chip cookies).
Though it's definitely in the works, Jowdy's still in the process of branching out into Center City and doesn’t have an exact date of when this will happen, but she does tell me to be on the lookout for Zsa’s at the next Food Trust Night Market, scheduled for Oct. 6. Until then, someone please take me to Media? I'll buy you ice cream.
