Along Coney Island's boardwalk, in between hotdog and nacho stands and White Castle burger restaurants, stands Coney's Cones, a colorful gelato shop where for the last two seasons, under the supervision of a young Italian gelato master, hundreds of secret recipes are used to produce fresh, old-fashioned handcrafted iced delicacies for thousands of passersby.
Daniele Dal Sasso, a chef and former co-owner of two family gelato stores in the small northern Italian town of Vicenza, helped open the shop in 2015 after CAI, a large Italian conglomerate which owns much of Coney Island's amusement park, flew the young chef to Brooklyn and asked whether he might consider opening a version of his Vicenza shops on the boardwalk.
