Pitango Gelato Fells Point

broadway in fells point has its share of tourist traps, but pitango gelato somehow manages to stay real. the 4.7 rating from nearly a thousand reviews tells you something about consistency. this isn't flash-in-the-pan good. it's the kind of place where baristas remember your order after three visits, where the coffee tastes like someone actually cares what's happening in your cup. solo coffee drinkers gravitate here for good reason. no forced small talk when you need quiet. no rushing you out the door. just solid espresso and the gentle hum of a neighborhood spot that knows what it's doing. chains can replicate recipes but they can't bottle this feeling. the steam wand hisses, ceramic clicks against saucers, and baltimore does what baltimore does best: keeps things honest.
