There’s even gelato and sorbetto on the menu — the perfect companion to our warm summers here in the desert.

Grand Opening Celebration

From noon to 11 p.m. on Saturday, October 21, the team at Bobazona is going all out to welcome the new shop to town. They’ll be hosting giveaways throughout the day, music from DJs, and a trick-or-treat cauldron for the youngsters.
