What an unforgettable World Cup. Every chant, every goal, every celebration, and every moment shared in our shop made this journey one we will never forget.
We are so proud to be Argentine and of the heart that “La Selección” showed the world, the same passion and pride that inspire us every single day.
Sharing our love for authentic Argentine gelato and FÚTBOL with this amazing community has been a true privilege. Thank you for making this little corner of Evanston feel a little more like home.
We can’t wait to keep making memories together, one scoop at a time! 🇦🇷🍦
