Confusing that you couldn't order beverages first. Had to wait in line for gelato, then pay cashier and order coffee drink, then wait for that after payment. Not very efficient or logical

Your products are wonderful. Only problem was, I asked for two containers to go, one of pear, one of peach. When I got home and opened them this evening, the "peach" turned out to be "watermelon." No doubt about the flavor difference!
