Dolcezza is located at 1560 Wisconsin Ave, NW. I was actually intrigued by the fact that they have churros. Anyone tried them? And of course how does their gelato compare with Pitango’s?

Thanks to the many readers writing me about the opening of Pitango Gelato located at 1451 P Street, NW. Anyone check them out yet? Worth $4.77?
And going is Eco Green Living located at 1469 Church Street, NW. This is the place where I was impressed by their dual flush toilets…

“So, I noticed that a new Gelato store is going into the Metropole’s empty retail space next to Lulu Lemon.

There’s now a sign up in the window though. Pintango Gelato coming soon!”
The Washington Business Journal wrote back in June:
“”It’s basically going back to the original gelato where it’s a very simple and wholesome dessert, without coloring,” [Noah] Dan said. Prices will range from $4.77 for a regular portion to about $6 for a large serving, big enough for two people, he said. All the gelato will be made in-house, using organic and locally farmed ingredients.”
Any gelato fans out there? How does it differ from regular ice cream?
