It’s ‘Buon Apetito!’ at Oporto Café
By Rhea Diaz, December 2006
If you’re craving something sweet and cold, ask for gelato, which is Italian ice cream. This
is provided by local gelato maker Marcelo Kreindel of Trentino Gelato. When I was
introduced to it a few years ago, I fell in love with the frozen dessert, which has a silky
texture and is not as sticky-sweet as regular ice cream. Panna cotta, Italian for “cooked
cream,” and dried fruits are the key ingredients that make up the divine Tutti Frutti. Similar
to a children’s favorite in Portugal, this flavor was created by Trentino just for Oporto. I
had a generous scoop of both Tutti Frutti and pistachio flavors, which was presented with
a crunchy pizelle waffle cookie.
