Any suggestions?

Well, I can tell you NOT to go to Pui Bella in Forest Hills, on Austin St, as their gelato is pretty poor, yet they pack them in there on the weekends, with lousy cakes and so-so gelato. There must be good places in Brooklyn, I would imagine...but in Queens, I've yet to find as good as in the city.
