La Gelateria Cleveland
Description
Valerio Iorio, a native of Florence, Italy came to Cleveland 8 years ago with the dream of opening his own restaurant. His dream came true with the opening of Valerio’s in the historic Little Italy district located in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. Inspired by the Gelato cafés of Italy, Valerio set out to recreate that same experience of a trendy, informal gathering place as one would find in the streets of Italy. The result, the opening of La Gelateria in 2003. La Gelateria is a two-level sorbetto and gelato café that has truly become one of Cleveland’s choicest hotspots.
Ever since Bernardo Buontalenti created gelato for the court of Francesco de' Medici in 1565, Italians have been blissfully scooping the chilly delight from paper cups with small wooden spoons. In Italy, gelato acts as both social lubricant and internal air-conditioner on those sultry Mediterranean evenings after dinner and well into the night.
It is 8:30 in the morning and Valerio Iorio is pouring a gallon of fior di latte, or "flower of the milk" into a stainless-steel Italian-made gelato machine. He's working in the shiny new basement of La Gelateria, his gelato shop at Cedar Road and Fairmount Boulevard in Cleveland Heights.
