"Gemini is a natural wine shop that's also an ice cream parlor that's also one of the best Italian restaurants in the city. There aren’t any seats inside—just some counter-height tables—which means you have to eat your pasta standing up. If that sounds like a deal-breaker, you haven’t tried their orecchiette, made in-house and cooked just shy of al dente. After dinner, grab a scoop of ice cream from the cart outside." - madeline weinfield
