Last Sunday, I went to Eataly with my twenty-three year old daughter, Calli, my college roommate, Sharon and her twelve year old daughter, Rachel. In planning this excursion, we all agreed that dessert would be Nutella crepes at the Nutella Bar located in Eataly. Having arrived at Eataly first, my daughter and I did a quick exploration of the famed food hall. During our first lap around, we were unable to find the Nutella Bar.

After Sharon and Rachel joined us and we sat down for lunch, we questioned our waiter about the location of the Nutella Bar. We were disappointed to hear that the Nutella Bar no longer existed. It was, however, replaced by a Nutella cart that travels throughout Eataly. The four of us decided that, after lunch, we would find the Nutella cart.

Steadfast in our resolve to have our Nutella treats, after we finished lunch, we roamed throughout Eataly looking for the cart. It took us about an hour, and several other purchases, to finally locate the cart and satisfy our Nutella urges.

In relaying this story to another friend, she told me that she believed there was a phone app that tracks the location of the Nutella cart. While I enjoyed exploring the food hall looking for the cart, I am sure I would have saved a lot of money in the other purchases I made during our expedition, if such an app existed and I knew to use it.

Which brings me to two questions, what are your favorite apps and if you could create an app to do anything what would it be?
