Gelato originated in Italy and is the WORLD'S MOST DELICIOUS ICE CREAM. The word Gelato means "frozen" in Italian and is their word for ICE CREAM. Traditional ice cream is composed of 50% air and has an average of 15% butter fat. This results in a much more dense and creamy product that has very little heaviness in the finish and leaves virtually no residue on the back of the palate. Taste buds are not having to work through so much fat to get to the flavors! Regular ice cream is served at zero degrees Fahrenheit where gelato is served at around 10 degrees. This also contributes to the intense flavor and the texture is much creamier. Gelato typically has one third less calories than ice cream with an average of 65 calories per ounce. Mona Lisa's Gelato is an all natural product whose flavors are imported directly from Italy, made in the finest Italian machines using methods taught at an Italian owned and operated gelato school by master gelatiers (gelato makers). Mona Lisa's Gelato uses milk and cream from local dairies and creates its gelato fresh daily in its own kitchen in Johnson City, Tennessee. The result is a superb, all natural artisan gelato that is divinely textured and more flavorful than you can possibly imagine. Mona Lisa's also offers several flavors of Gelato and Sorbetto that use Splenda rather than sugar to create brilliantly tasty products for those who are diabetic or who are simply seeking a low calorie alternative. Mona Lisa's Gelato and Cafe' is now a great lunch and dinner destination. Homemade soups are made every day and are served with a ciabatta roll we make fresh daily in our bakery. Our daily Soup Special is a large bowl, Roll, Butter and a Drink. We serve Pints to go with a roll and butter and Quarts to go with two rolls. Love is our main ingredient. We offer a beautiful assortment of high quality grilled Panini and regular sandwiches.Call for Take-Out, Delivery or Catered events - 423-262-8357 or order from our website at http://monalisasgelato.com
