Posso avere un po' di panna montata?

Category: Gelato (it deserves it's own category)
Phrase:
"Con panna, per favore!"
Traslation: With whipped cream, please!

Panna isn't exactly like the whipped cream in America, but I don't know of a better translation. To be more precise, you can use "panna montata", panna is just "cream," but I like to mangle as few Italian words as possible when I speak. Ever since we were treated to gelato at Giolitti's, where I first learned of panna, I always try to remember to ask for it. Perche no? It's free, usually. I don't even like whipped cream at home, so panna must be good!
