One thing Italians are known for is gelato! We took every opportunity (daily) to try to local goods. I know what you're thinking - it really can't be that good, can it? Let's examine some of the evidence.
What's the first thing that comes to mind when you think "gelato" (ice cream to the uninitiated)? Would you crave it on a chilly day? How about a chilly and rainy day? Here is some evidence that in fact fresh gelato is so tasty, that even in chilly, rainy weaher gelato is a delicious treat while sitting outside:
Okay, okay. That's just my two kids enjoying gelato somewhere in the 5 Terre. What's the big deal?
Well, first there is the taste test. Take a look at this kid. Clearly he is a bit unsure if this gelato is worth all the fuss. Neither outwardly happy, nor disappointed.
Then there's this little girl. There none of the ambivalence like with the photo above, but no real excitement either.
But wait!
There's more to the story. Here is the same girl. Not quite done with that cone, but clearly pretty happy with what she has.
And then there's this little guy. Well, he's so happy with his gelato he's even willing to wear it!
So is it that good?
Yeah. It's that good.
Ciao.
Marc
