This was the last stop for our Walking Food Tour in Testaccio. Gelateria Brivido is the kind of…read moreplace that reminds you why Roman gelato has a reputation for artistry. Unlike shops that lean toward tourist-friendly novelty flavors, Brivido stays true to tradition -- you can taste the authenticity in every scoop. I ordered a small cup with these 2 flavors. Marron Glacé: It was the first time I saw this flavor OR maybe I just was not paying attention to it since my eyes go directly to pistacchio. This chestnut-flav gelato was a revelation. A sophisticated flavor that captures the essence of candied chestnuts. It's gently sweet layered with caramel and this is now my new favorite. Cremino al Pistacchio: A luxurious blend that balances the creamy richness of white chocolate with the nutty elegance of pistachio. It's a flavor that showcases Brivido's mastery of tradition. The texture is dense and smooth, a hallmark of true artisanal gelato. Btw, this is also the only gelateria that we've been to that offers fresh whipped cream or chocolate sauce topping. Verdict: Brivido is a gelateria for those who want the REAL Roman gelato experience. The Marron Glacé and Cremino al Pistacchio are must-try flavors that showcase why this spot stands apart from the tourist-oriented shops.

You can tell this place is legit because it is in a fairly quiet area and has tons of locals going in and out for a scoop of gelato. We had to do lots of gesturing to explain what we wanted, but the service was friendly. The store itself is very humble with minimal decoration, so you know the gelato speaks for itself. Worth the hike up the Monteverde steps!

The main difference from the first one I tried was Linari's was freshly baked.

In the past, I knew of Gelateria Navona, just a few doors up from the actual piazza, and that was…read moremy go-to place for gelato in Rome. Expecting it to be there one year, I walked over to Piazza Navona and Gelateria Navona had evidently closed. I would then get gelato here and there. I then learned that Giolitti is a long standing gelateria and it's also in the historic center. I filed the name away in my head. Then, one day, I happened to walk right in front of it without even looking for it, so I went in. Giolitti is popular and it can be crowded. I'm going to say that I waited about 10 to 15 minutes. You pay at a counter first, deciding on what you want and how much of it, such as scoops and whether it will be in a cup or a cone. Once up at the counter, they don't rush you, which surprised me. I don't take that much time since I don't experiment much, but I still appreciate the courtesy. The price is roughly what everyone else in the historic center is charging. I always opt for the gelato it in a cup so you can "control" the dripping. The gelato - a mix of dark chocolate and two citrus flavors - was "molto buono." That said, just because it's so popular, I'm not going to downgrade Giolitti for it and complain about the crowds. You downgrade gourmet donut places in the U.S. where their fame has gone to their heads. There is also a spacious salon with nicer decor in which you can eat inside. At this point, Giolitti is really the only gelateria in Rome whose name I remember. I would gladly go back and I recommend it.

A decent gelato place has fresh, standard flavors like chocolate, pistachio, or stracciatella. A good gelato place has interesting flavors like lavender, basil, or pear. A superb gelato place, like Fatamorgana, combines multiple interesting flavors in *one* flavor. My favorite Fatamorgana flavors at the moment are: * Rose petals, violet flowers, and walnuts * Lavender flowers and wood strawberries * Carrot cake * Chestnut and myrtle ...I don't even know what myrtle is, but I know I like it.
