It’s a gelato love story for the ages:owners Vera Teodori and Alex Toretto met at a gelateria in Rome. He was a gelato chef,her father owned a gelateria,and they both dreamed of opening their own place. Ten years later they’ve done it on throngingKoornang Road,one of Melbourne’s most delicious streets. Nuvoletta’s motto – “gelato is necessary” – is proven in every lick. The classic flavours are impeccable,but so are the modern creations such as Earl Grey and candied pistachio.

Must-try scoop:Ricotta,lemon and olive oil is a classy sweet-savoury amalgam as good as any restaurant dessert.
