Nannarella
Roman gelato served with a spatula, made in front of you by an owner who has argued in public that Portugal should legally define what artisanal gelato means — an unusually direct transparency signal in a category where the phrase is unregulated. The fruit comes from one named supplier at the Mercado da Ribeira; the cream is remade every two hours.
What to order
Bronte pistachio, or the zabaglione made with Port.
