Gelato Tour

Real Gelato in Seattle

Saturday, May 29th, 2010

And by that I mean: quite possibly even better than you could find in Italy. *gasp*
“Blasphemy!” you cry.
But: no!

Ever since we decided to settle here in Washington, we’ve built up a lovely little community of fellow Italian expats. One of them, our friend Marco D’Ambrosio, has taken the brave leap of […]

I’ve been doing the TdG since last December, and every time I’ve told you: “yes, this gelato is good, but it’s not my favorite….”

Tour del Gelato: Special “HOT” Edition

The Gelato Tour doesn’t have a long and storied history, but as time goes on I have no doubt it will. […]
