I don't know if there is bad gelato, but I haven't encountered it yet. That said, Sbrino is the…read morebest gelato I had in Florence, which puts it toward the top of the list of my favorite gelato worldwide. This tiny little shop has an inefficient system for ordering, which results in more of a line than their should be, and subsequently more of a delay than I'd like in getting the most delicious caramello gelato cone into my face. However, I find it hard to be upset with them once I am eating the gelato. Eating this gelato makes me very happy, and I would like to come back to Florence and eat it every day of my life until I die, fat and happy. (My apologies that my friend is in my photo of said gelato. It's the only photo I took of it, and I understand that no one wants to see his silly face, but I really wanted you all to see the gelato.)

During a 5 week stay in Italy, I stopped here to purchase some yummy desserts for a dinner party at…read moremy Italian friend's home. I selected this bakery because it had good reviews and was only a couple blocks from my apartment. When I arrived at my friend's with an armload of Mama's goodies they said, "Oh, you went to the American bakery!" Me : Huh? I did? Of course I (an American) had somehow stumbled into probably the only American bakery in Florence. (To be fair, they may bake a lot of American style treats, but it is staffed and frequented by mostly locals. The cashier graciously went and found the one staff member who spoke English to help me. Very kind.) I had ordered about a dozen different items - cookies, brownies, pies - and we all had a great time sampling them after dinner. Every single one was absolutely delicious! B O T T O M L I N E : Go! Cozy spot, lots of seating, great food, and friendly staff!

It's close to Palazzo Pitti and you'll miss if you blink coz it's so unassuming! The lemon sorbet is so good! It's on the tart side. My friend loved the coconut so much we came back twice after she tried it the first time. They also serve espresso. Don't expect a huge welcome because the owner/man behind the counter isn't the warm and fuzzy sort. I witnessed a woman come in and gush to him about how fabulous his gelato is (in Italian, and I'm only guessing from the words I overheard) and his smile didn't change by much, although I could tell he was pleased and grateful.

We finally decided on caramello de salle, sofia, nocciola, and creme de fiorentina. Caramello de Salle- The caramel flavor is deep and rich without being overly sweet. You get the sea salt in the end. Sofia- This has a custard base with chocolate chips and candied orange. The base is creamy and the chocolate provides a contrast while the orange gives you a burst of citrus. Nocciola- This is starting to be one of my favorite gelato flavors. The hazelnut flavor is rich and has just the right amount of sweetness. Creme de Fiorentina- Simple but delicious. The base is smooth and custardy and goes well with whatever second flavor you pair it with. Great experience overall!
