Il Gelato di San Crispino
Via della panetteria 42, near the Trevi Fountain
Il Gelato di San Crispino serves what many consider to be the best ice-cream in Rome - some say in the world.
The secret is the makers' obsessive control over the whole process. The flavours on offer change according to
what's in season - in summer the lampone (raspberry) and susine (yellow plum) are fabulous. Cones would
interfere with the purity of the product: only tubs are allowed.

And don’t miss the Cappuccini Crypt:
At the corner of the Via Veneto and the Piazza Barberini, the Santa Maria della Concezione Church is mostly
known for the Crypt of the Cappuccini Monks
About halfway up the stairs to the church, on the right side, you will find the entrance to the ossuary, known as
the Capuchin Crypt, in which is displayed the bones of over 4000 Capuchin friars, collected between the years of
1528 and 1870. When one of the friars die, he is buried in a vault, and after some time the bones are retrieved
and placed in this ossuary. The bones are fashioned into decorative displays in the Baroque and Rococo style.
