$5 for $10 Worth of Authentic Gelato, Coffees, and Pastries at Gelato Bar & Espresso Caffe

In case your tongue never spent a summer in the Tuscan countryside being romanced by the devilishly smooth Italian known only as “Gelato,” today’s deal gives it the next best thing: $10 worth of pastries, coffees, and sumptuous gelato at Gelato Bar & Espresso Caffé in Studio City for $5.

Gelato isn’t your Aunt Millie’s famous tin-rolled ice cream. One taste of Gelato Bar’s 24 seasonal flavors of handmade premium gelato-such as pistachio, spicy chocolate, blood orange, cinnamon basil, and stracciatella ($3.50-$6.75)-and you’ll understand why all your Europe-trotting friends came back babbling about how it’s like tasting ice cream for the first time, every time. Not one to rest on her stracciatellas, designer Gail Silverton makes annual treks to the Umbrian region of Italy to hone her gelato-craft. She has also fancified Gelato Bar’s beautiful interior with a water fountain and small-scale Italian piazza so that you can enjoy an authentic taste of Italian chillage with every taste of chilled Italian authentics. Dairy-free and sugar-free options are also available.

Chase the cold kiss of your gelato with the warm embrace of exquisite coffees provided by Ecco Caffé ($2-$6). Ecco’s fair-trade, boutique-roasted beans provide a sipping experience as richly royale as a Vivaldi concerto performed on the terrace of a Venetian palazzo. Turn the taste duet into a trio by adding a few filled croissants, oatmeal, paninis, or imported candies.

Your mouth has endured tremendous amounts of strain this year from loud talking, precise whispering, and sudden Cheetos invasions. Treat it to an all-out spa experience of deliciousness, shifting temperatures, and international flavors with today’s Groupon.
