our friends carissa and andrew told us about pitango, a little gelato shop here in the district a few weeks ago. we're so glad they did. i don't think i can count how many times we've "accidentally found ourselves around E and 7th NW" since, but it's our new favorite place and some of the best gelato we've had. our favorite flavors are the pistachio and chocolate noir. the gelato shop imports their nuts all the way from europe and all their milk and cream products are produced on their local farm in pennsylvania. we want to go visit the farm near amish country later this summer. we've been wanting an excuse to visit amish country again anyway.
