When my husband and I went to Italy for our honeymoon there was one thing we did every day regardless of where we traveled — ate gelato! I became quite the connoisseur and could tell by looking at their pistachio if it was worth trying. Imagine my delight when I discovered two new gelaterias in Seattle.
Bottega Italiana has a store near Pike Place and a new location near Greenlake. They offer the very best of year round and seasonal flavors using only the best organic ingredients. After several visits I’d have to say their pistachio is truly amazing.
Holly Smith, the super talented chef at Cafe Juanita has created Poco Carretto Gelato – a traveling organic gelato cart which will be at farmers markets this summer. I can’t wait to try some of her ingenious flavors.
So — why all this gelato talk you ask? Both Bottega Italiana and Poco Carretto take their gelato on the road to events. I can’t think of a better way to thank guests than a nice scoop of fresh, organic gelato!
Salut!

wow… I have never met someone else who measured the quality of gelato by the pistachio. That is exactly what I do!!. After living in Italy for six months I became quite the connoisseur of excellent Gelato and the pistachio flavor was very memorable.
