wtf, I went all the way to Venice late last year and because of this and another review I went to Alaska. What a f####ing letdown. Honestly some of the worst Gelato I’ve ever had – and certainly the only Gelato we *ever* threw in the bin in all of Italy.

I like GROM however, its ice cream is so creamy that is almost cloying in your mouth. It used to be way more expensive than nearby Doge, however they have lowered their prices to within 20 cents of Doge this summer. Plus the owners of GROM are never there. I think it is owned by a syndicate and the flavors are picked by some kind of committee. I like the hands-on owners of Doge and Alaska who are almost always there during the day.

GROM is best, I think! :-)

Venice is a tourist town and ice cream stands seem to be on every corner, Venice is one of the gelato centers of the country. And the test of the ice cream has one of the pleasurable.

Love Il Doge – it’s a must-stop on our Venice tours and although I’m tempted to try a new flavor, I can’t resist their signature flavor with the candied orange peel. Oh I’d love a scoop right NOW!

For my money, Alaska is the best in Venice. Carlo really loves his art and uses only the best (real) ingredients – there are no factory produced flavourings involved at all.

For me the best gelato you find in Venice on the Rialto Bridge.
New opening gelato shop GO.NA. Very Cool.
Homemade ice cream with fresh fruit.
Delicious licorice and pistachio
