Fresh gelato is crafted every morning in the Almare Gelato lab, "the Italian way" since 2008. This includes cutting fresh fruit, roasting pistachios, mixing nut butters and infusing flowers, then combining cream, milk and sugar to achieve the best gelato possible. Head in for a scoop of the famous toasted almond with caramelized figs or a taste of smooth stracciatella. Espresso, coffee and a wide tea selection are also available.
