I had learned about this hidden gem near the Pantheon in Rome for a long time - Cremeria Monteforte. It was told that if you craved an authentic experience, this was the place to go for some of the best gelato in the city. After days of sightseeing and visiting the usual landmarks, I took a chance and try the place out. The shop was small, but it had a quaint charm to it.

 

The whispers are true, Rome is all that and more! Start by exploring the ancient ruins of the Forum. Take a tour of the Colosseum and do not miss the Vatican City in the epicenter of Rome. Sit back and gaze in awe at the Sistine Chapel and ponder, “Just how did Michelangelo do that?” 

 

Walk along the narrow cobblestone streets of Rome for an authentic Italian feast. These streets or alleyways, should you choose to follow, can harbor some of the finest shopping and dining you will discover in Rome. 

 

No Rome adventure is complete unless you toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain. According to the legend of Rome’s most famous fountain, there are three key reasons for tossing coins into the Trevi. The first coin guarantees your return to Rome, the second will ensure a new romance, and the third will ensure marriage. How many coins will you toss?

 

Let's get ready and plan your "Roman Holiday"

With each spoonful, I felt transported to a different world, and I savored the experience to the fullest. The creamy, chocolaty flavors, combined with the beautiful view, made for an unforgettable experience. I left the place feeling content, yet still craving for more. Such is the power of Cremeria Monteforte - a place where you can savor the best of Rome’s gelato and culture in a single bite. Plus, the people watching are pretty good.
