The 20 Best Ice Cream Shops In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation

"As your coworker who went to Italy five years ago constantly reminds you, gelato is wonderful and “way better than ice cream.” That person is annoying, but occasionally right, and Paulo in West Town proves their theory. The gelato here has an unbelievably velvety texture, and the variety of flavors, like pistachio brimming with intense nuttiness, sweet and salty dulce de leche, and cookies and cream, makes us weep tears of joy. It’s a small, narrow shop with zero space to eat inside, but there’s a quiet sidewalk patio for you to sit in peace while the tears stream down your face." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
