Having spent a good chunk of my youth in Italy (where I consumed mass quantities of gelato...SOMETIMES FOR LUNCH!) and having gone in to D'Ambrosio for a cone last week, I can tell you that is some legit damn gelato. Probably the best I've had outside of Italy.
Noble Fir in Ballard is cool. In the far left is a booth/library of hiking guides and topographic maps. And a decent selection of beers on tap. Bring back the goddamn Molten Lava tap!
Kudos, Ballard!
