How to order gelato in Italy, really? Do we actually need a blog on how to order ice cream, how hard can it be? First, let’s not call gelato ice cream. I don’t care what the guidebook or translator says! And yes, we do need a post, and here’s why.

Having real gelato in Italy should be on everyone’s must-do list when traveling there. To go to Italy and not stop at a real, authentic gelateria would be like going to Pisa and not seeing the leaning tower, or to Rome and not stopping at Trevi. It’s practically unheard of and you would be doing yourself a disservice.
