Bar Ape Gelato
To try some of the best Italian gelato in the city, go to Bar Ape (pronounced ah-pay). An ape is a three-wheeled motorcycle and the founders got their start selling their fresh-made gelato by driving one around the city. They are opened from May to October and offer a full variety of flavours.
