"Opened in 1932, Badiani is at the high end of Florence gelaterias. The large shop is perfectly designed, with a curved wooden counter presiding over a kaleidoscope of flavors and colors. The design is simple—light, white, and yet beautifully presented with care and consideration. All the better to let the sweets—gelatos, cakes, pastries, and freshly baked croissants—shine. The gelato is made fresh daily, and the menu's flavors are extensive; try Buontalenti, one of the signature flavors, which mixes egg cream and chocolate." - Bridget Arsenault
