General info: 

There is something about italian ice-cream, gelato. It has less fat than in private://normalprivate:// ice-cream but it tastes amazing, much better than any other ice cream.

Gelaterias, the small cafes serving gelato are everywhere in Rome. Wherever there are people, there is a gelateria. They usually have a good selection of different flavors and different gelaterias have their own specialities.

We picked here Gelateria Bocca Di Dama but really we could have picked almost any gelateria, most of them serve simply great gelato. This is something you must try once in Rome.

Getting there: 

Go where the crowds gather.

Costs: 

In small gelaterias you usually pay between 2-4€.

In restaurants the prices are higher.
