ristorazione — Cassago Brianza · Lombardia
In the green heart of the Brianza lecchese, in Cassago, Stefano Rigamonti's Gelateria Josè has built a daily ritual around artisanal gelato that shifts with the seasons, welcomes those with gluten intolerance with a cone at the same price, and travels home too, in a tub.
The entrance to Gelateria Josè opens onto the green of the Brianza lecchese: inside, tables welcome those who wish to linger, while the outdoor courtyard with its garden offers a pause in the quiet of the village. Alongside gelato, the venue also runs a café service with weekend morning opening hours, turning every visit into a rounded break, from breakfast through to evening.
Behind the counter, the display case tells the story of the season: lemon cream, blueberry, and passion Argentina are just some of the offerings that rotate frequently, always new and always different, reflecting Stefano Rigamonti's ongoing research. Those with gluten intolerance find a rightful place here: the gluten-free cone is offered at the same price as the others, with no distinction whatsoever.
The workshop is also home to gelato cakes, cannoli, ice lollies and yogurt: an artisanal production that goes well beyond the cone and turns the gelateria into a small atelier of cold. The tubs go out the door too: home delivery in the area brings Josè's quality straight to your door, for those unwilling to give up their gelato of the day.
The full page tells the story of every flavour, every season, and how to get there: Gelateria Josè awaits, with its gelato of the day, in the green heart of the Brianza.
