February 5th = World Nutella Day. If this doesn’t sound like a holiday to you, then we’re not sure what will. As the World Nutella Day site states, “Nutella is more than just a chocolaty hazelnut spread. It is a way of life.” Think about the time you first discovered Nutella. You were probably intrigued — feeling *all* the feels. That being said, it’s time to bestow all of the hazelnut chocolate knowledge on you — here are a few ways to celebrate World Nutella Day in Hoboken.
Nutella Cappucino at Blue Eyes Restaurant
OK here’s the deal — your caffeine fix plus Nutella. Seriously, there’s probably no better drink in existence, so get to sipping.
Nutella Pizza at Otto Strada
This is a very fun spin on pizza The sweet version! If you haven’t been to Otto Strada, run — don’t walk! It’s a great midtown spot a bit off the beaten path serving up something sweet {and savory} for dinner.
Nutella Creme Brûlée at Brass Rail
Brûléed Nutella with freshly hand-whipped cream–and the cream is also brûléed. In a nutshell: it’s a must-try. It’s pretty ridiculous, a slight crunch of the brûlée with the fresh whipped cream and Nutella creaminess.
Nutella Pizza Pie at Johnny Pepperoni
Delicious and doughy don’t begin to cover it. But you don’t have to take the HG word for it. Johnny Pepperoni’s pies are pretty awesome – and a great uptown family spot! Plus, it’s BYOB.
Nutella Croissant at Dolce & Salato
In a few words: This croissant is amazing. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a more rich and gooey Nutella croissant.
Acai Bowls at Shaka Bowl
If you’re on a health kick but craving some Nutella, no worries — try Shaka Bowl’s Molokai Cacao bowl with your choice of base {acai or pitaya}, granola, banana, strawberry, goji berries, cacao nibs, crushed almonds, and Nutella. You can also create your own bowl and top it with Nutella.
Nutella Doughnuts at Anthony David’s
Most things at Anthony David’s are out-of-this-world… so you know this dessert is going to be delicious.
Nutella Bomboloni at Prato Bakery
A bombolone is an Italian filled doughnut. Now just imagine that stuffed with Nutella! Prato Bakery also has pan brioche with Nutella, Nutella focaccia bread, cornetto with Nutella, and a Nutella latte.
Nutella Croissant at Alessio’s
Alessio’s brings Italy to Hoboken with classic Italian cuisine and desserts, much like that Nutella croissant that pairs great with one of the lattes.
Nutella Drizzle at Acai Ya Later
At Acai Ya Later, you can create your very own acai or pitaya bowl and have it drizzled with Nutella. So, when your friend suggests getting a healthy snack, be that person and throw some Nutella on it. And they definitely don’t skimp, so be prepared.
Where to buy Nutella in Hoboken
Vito’s Delicatessen has been known to supply it… as well as a few other Italian delis around town + Shoprite. But if we’re being honest, it’s way more fun to buy this Italian treat at an authentic Italian deli…especially in Hoboken.
