Il Gelato - Italian “gelato” is an institution.

Despite the homonymy, this mouth watering treat has very little in common with other
types of “ice cream” known throughout the world.
It is richer in natural sugars and contains fewer saturated fats.
In fact, the cooling process used to make Italian “gelato” is not only quicker but also contains less air. This not only makes it thicker and more creamy but also enhances it taste, giving it a more genuine flavour. Though eaten yearround,
in Italy, the height of the ice-cream season runs from May to September. You
can either eat it while strolling along the street in the “cone” or “cup” version
or while sitting comfortably at a table, where you will have the choice of anumber of delicious options offered by the menu. Although most restaurants offer “gelato”
as a dessert at the end of a meal, the best place to really indulge yourselves is
at a classic “gelateria”.
Below you can find a list of several Milanese favourites. However, you will soon realize that withso many places to choose from you will be spoiled for choice.
Note these names down on your personal map and…enjoy!
