Gelato

When something is referred to as the best, its quite misleading. Because what is “the best”? Best is subjective to one’s tastes. It’s the same concept as the saying- one man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

In a past issue, we called Chocolat “the best gelato in Milan,” and to us, it still is, but to others, it may be a little further down the list of gelaterias here in the city.

A reader Steve wrote in about his favorites in Milan, because as he states “favorite is one thing and best is another.” Very true indeed. So here are Steve’s favorites, in his own words. Try them all and see what you think. Because after all, there is always room for a few more favorites when it comes to gelato!

“1) Massimo del Gelato. The name says it all. People drive their cars here and double park for gelato.

2) Bianco Latte on Via Turati. The chocolate flavors might be better at Chocolat but the overall quality of Latte Bianco for all flavors is better.

3) Choco Cult I think this edges Chocolat simply because they make stranger flavors like Chocolate and Basilico which sounds bad but in reality is an unexpected surprise. “
