A rich ice cream containing little or no air.
Etymology: Italian, meaning literally frozen
Almost every night around 8:00 you can find me walking through the Piazza di San Cosimato, down Via San Francesco a Ripa to Giorgiagel's where I am always greeted like family. I always order un piccolo cono with 2 flavors. Lately, it has been cocco (coconut) with some other fruity indulgence. Last night it was cocco e mango, a combo I will most definitely have again. After paying the minimal 1,50 euro I leave the quaint little shop, go back up Via San Francesco a Ripa, through the Piazza di San Cosimato and round the final corner to my building door at which point I take my last lick of gelato and crunch into the cone. On the way up the stairs to my apartment I finish the cone and pop the last bit into my mouth just as I turn the key and push open the door.
