It's Not Ice Cream, It's Gelato

You’ve had the pasta, the wine, and the pizza, but now you need something sweet. The solution? Gelato. Italy may be known for their exquisite entrees, but the gelato is not to be missed.

Fatamorgana
                
Known for their interesting flavors and experimentation, Fatamorgana has locations tucked away in little spots throughout Rome. Each option is made from all natural ingredients, with no chemical additives and artificial flavors. After touring the Coliseum or Vatican City, stop in to enjoy a refreshing sweet treat in flavors like almond, pistachio, Madagascar chocolate, or Kentucky.


Riva Reno

If you’re looking for the full-fat gelato experience in Rome, look no further than Riva Reno. This gelateria even lists on its website why it’s so good; whole milk from the north of Italy and steel bin storage to keep the freshness in and air out. Chocolate lovers will adore the dark and extra dark chocolate flavors. They even have “New York-New York” (a butter-pecan delight) as a flavor for anyone who is missing the stars and stripes.


Gelateria del Teatro
Want to see first-hand what goes into making this delectable dessert? Head on over to Gelateria del Teatro. Walking up you will usually see someone in the window chopping ingredients along with a display of the fresh ingredients they use on a daily basis. Many tourists and Romans alike have touted this location as one of the best for nut based flavors such as pistachio, hazelnut, and almond. If you’re feeling crazy, take a chance and try one of their experimental flavors.
