This lovely gelateria is a unique find in Seattle because it truly does evoke the experience of being in another place. We stopped by this weekend after some hat shopping at the nearby B. Utz shop and savored 4 flavors (not huge portions, thankfully) and a cappucino. Our choices consisted of coconut, pistachio, stracciatello, and caffe'.
When I travel to Italy I sample gelato in as many flavors as is possible and this shop will help me seek out this same desire for gelato but closer to home. I will definitely visit this shop again (I can't believe it took me this long to go there) - and I think I like it even over the long-standing Il Procopio just west of the Pike Place Market (off Western Ave).
