    Italian Dupont Circle Cucina Doles out Complimentary Gelato on July 28 from 1-2 p.m. to Celebrate Launch of New Sidewalk Gelato Cart

    WASHINGTON, DC (July 20, 2011) – In Italy, it’s almost impossible not to run into a street vending gelato cart on every other corner. Bringing a true Italian experience to the lively streets of DC, Casa Nonna is opening a new street-side Gelato Cart, serving up handmade, creamy gelato with rotating flavors that change daily.

    Casa Nonna’s new Gelato Cart will serve up a roster of six creative rotating flavors, paired with some of Executive Chef Amy Brandwein‘s delicious handmade biscotti.

    The perfect treat for everyone from hungry tourists to busy, on-a-lunch-break executives, Casa Nonna’s sidewalk gelato cart will serve up icy sweets every day 12 pm – 6 pm.

    Seasonal, unique flavors may include Meyer Lemon, Stracciatella, Ricotta and Fig Vin Cotto Swirl  and the authentic Italian Nocciola. Customers can choose between one scoop ($3.75) or two ($4.75) and can even get their gelato in a waffle cone ($.50 extra) for a perfect on-the-go treat.

    Opening Day Celebration – Free Gelato on July 28th!

    Kicking off the Gelato Cart launch, Casa Nonna will serve up complimentary gelato on Thursday, July 28 from 1 – 2 p.m. to anyone who needs a welcome respite from the DC heat.

    Casa Nonna’s Gelato Cart will operate from July 28 until the weather turns cold.
