About Gelateria Giancarlo
Gelateria Giancarlo makes Italian ice cream where the Schillerstraße bends, directly opposite Schiller's house — gelato and coffee to original, authentic recipes, red parasols outside, open daily from nine in the morning.[1] A certificate in the window ranks it among Germany's top forty gelaterias.
One of the Giancarlo houses
The gelateria, run by Luana Guardati, belongs to the Gruppo Giancarlo — a family of Italian houses in Weimar devoted, in their own words, to Mediterranean food culture: original and authentic recipes for the dishes, the coffee specialities and the many kinds of ice cream alike.[2] Whoever eats here, the group likes to say, is not just a guest but a friend.
