How to Order Gelato

Ask for lots of tastes!

 

Today, I’ll be talking about how to order gelato.  For those of you who don’t know, gelato is the Italian word for ice cream.  First, you have to find a good gelato place.  The owner should be Italian or else you’re kind of doomed.  Second, you have to look at the display.  See if the ice cream looks fluffy.  A lot of natural colors and flavors are good too.  Third, order your gelato.  Don’t be afraid to ask for tastes.  You have to be very careful about ordering.  You have to ask for a small or say the price like, “ A 2 euro size please.”  Some places like to give the tourists extra large sizes and then charge them 10 euros!  But if  you’re Leo, go ahead and get the 10 euro size.
