About Gastronomia Roberto

Gastronomia Roberto is an Italian grocer and gelateria in Montreal's Petite-Patrie, close to Little Italy. Its gelato recipes go back to 1982, and pistachio is one of the flavours people remember. The grocery side carries Italian staples for home cooks who want the real thing.

It suits families on a summer evening walk, gelato lovers and anyone stocking up for an Italian dinner at home. Pick up pasta, cheese and cured meats, then end the trip with a cone or a cup of pistachio. It pairs well with an afternoon at nearby Jean-Talon Market, and it keeps the neighbourhood's Italian roots alive.
