Best Gelato in the world is right here in NOTO!
... Ricotta, Chocolate with orange flavour, Pistaccio, Hazelnut, Lemon, Strawberry etc. Well I order my first tub of gelato..... Oh my god, this is the BEST gelato and we are in heaven.

Seriously this gelato is amazing and we loved it.
Round 2 for me ...
