On a hot Florentine night, after witnessing a lovers quarrel on the street, we stopped at Gelateria dei Neri. The place was crowded so I took that as a sign that it was going to be good. My niece and sister in law were still on their Granita kick but I knew my girls wouldn’t … More Giro del Gelato: Gelateria dei Neri
Next up on my Florence recap, is another Gelateria I heard a lot about. On our last night in Florence we found ourselves crossing the Arno for dinner. Before going back we decided to get our gelato at Gelateria della Passera. It’s a tiny little shop located in Piazza della Passera so don’t let that … More Giro del Gelato: Gelateria della Passera
One of the first things I did when I started planning my visit to Florence was to find out where to go for amazing gelato. I have high standards and I do NOT go just anywhere. The problem with visiting touristy cities in the summertime is that it’s super hot and you just want something … More Giro del Gelato: il Procopio
One of my favorite things to do is walk around the city and take the streets less traveled. Avoiding the crowds on busy days or just not wanting to be bothered, taking a side street is the best way to find the places locals love. Having seen this gelateria before I made a mental note to … More Giro del Gelato: L’Essenza del Gelato
Alberto Marchetti. When one hears this name they think of only one thing. GELATO. Year after year, Alberto Marchetti continues to appear on everyone’s “Top Gelateria” lists. One try and it’s easy to see why. His flavors are classic and yet innovative; only using the freshest and highest quality of ingredients. I remember the first … More Giro del Gelato: Alberto Marchetti

That’s ConoGelato. It’s gelato with a simple twist. Gelato made with Piemontese Bufalo milk! Yes.. you read correctly.. BUFALO MILK! I am … More Giro del Gelato: ConoGelato
Spring is here and the weather has been UH-MA-ZING! Recently, I teamed up with my friends Turin Mamma and Michelle Bottalico Photography for an afternoon out (sans kids!) While our meet up was somewhat blogger business related it was just a perfect excuse to get together and relax. The last time we were at the … More Giro del Gelato: Gelateria Popolare
I wish I could remember who told me about La Fattoria del Gelato. I need to hug them.. or buy them a huge gelato! La Fattoria is an agrigelateria located in Pianezza which is located 15km west of the city center. Most people aren’t aware that this place even exist and that probably because it’s … More Giro del Gelato: La Fattoria del Gelato
A while back, I started receiving likes on several of my Instagram photos from a place called Latteria Ugolini. I had never heard of them before and once I saw they were a self service gelateria, I knew I had to try it out. The location is very small so on a hot summers … More Giro del Gelato: Latteria Ugolini
One a hot summer day, there’s nothing better than eating a gelato…. or 11! This year was the third annual Stra Gelato (aka Gelato marathon!) From my understanding, the past two years it was an actual timed marathon. This year, it was just a casual event. 11 hours to try 11 flavors of gelato. 11 … More Stra Gelato 2011
