Lively isn't halfway describing this place, madhouse is more like it! You start at the kiosk and you don't pick your flavors of gelato, just the type. Then you wait in line for them to call your number and people are jumping in front of you as though that will get their number called first (spoiler alert: it doesn't). But it is quite hectic and if you ordered cake too, that's at a separate counter and takes a crazy amount of time for a piece of semi-dry cake. The gelato itself is very good, it's just small for the price and the wait.

How can you not give this a 5 star and positive review?!?…read more Absolute perfection in a cone (or cup). My go to is tiramisu and coconut and I do splurge the extra 1€ to get the cone top filled with melted chocolate. On this trip to Italy I skipped lunch and enjoyed this treat and sat in the piazza to relax and watch the people. The shop is smaller but service is professional and quick. There is a lot of temptation to also purchase a variety of chocolate pieces/bars. Do yourself a favor and give in. You will do enough walking to justify it.

Every single coffee shop in Milan was and is fantastic. So don't just try this one. Any one of them…read morewill do! I noticed that very few people drink coffee on the go in Milan. They would simply stroll in, order a cup, pay for it, drink it at the counter without sitting down, and then peace out. The coffee is simply out of this world. After drinking the coffee in Milan, I was embarrassed with the selection that we have in NYC. I mean I knew it was bad but damn. Anyway, props to Milan and...Italy for doing their coffee right. I'm jealous.
