Fatamorgana Gelato

At Fatamorgana, you'll find 66 unique varieties of gelato and sorbetto reflective not just of Italy, but California as well. Run by husband-and-wife team Alessandro Jacchia and Katyna Mercenari, you'll find more esoteric tropical flavors like guava, passionfruit and mamey, an adorable "sushi" gelato bento box and classics like gianduja, stracciatella and frutti di bosco. By my account, Fatamorgana makes some of the best gelato in the city—and yes, I’ve tried Bacio di Latte and Bulgarini. Chocolate lovers, take note: Fatamorgana churns out a half-dozen varieties—all the better to order one of the shop's six-flavor waffle plate samplers. Plus, unlike traditional gelato (which often uses thickeners), every single flavor here is gluten-free, and two dozen of them are vegan.
