Construction is continuing on La Gelateria at EPCOT's Italy pavilion, with more paint finish detail being added to the exterior.

The pre-fabricated building was brought onto the site in two sections, earlier in the year.

Still no word yet from the pavilion's dining participant Patina, or Disney, on when La Gelateria will open and what we can expect from its menu line-up.

The new eatery is located on the far right side of the Italy pavilion on previously unused space.

How long before opening do Olive Garden usually install the signs? Can't wait to see those on the front of this.

I’m sure they are just waiting for the right moment to showcase their ingenuity for the sign on Instagram.

They did it... this Pistachihoe is very excited for opening!!
Here's hoping "May" means May 1st. I would love to sample their affogato & zeppole!

I have a couple of places around my parts where they have some fabolous versions of these two offerings, but it's a LITTLE different when you're enjoying them 'round the WS :cool:
Mmm’ yum.. i need all please!
Looked very close to me on Saturday.
