Grattachecca

Grattachecca is a shaved ice originating in Rome, Italy. Commonly sold in kiosks and bars as street food, it consists of hand-shaved ice topped with various flavors of sweet syrup. In contemporary times, some grattachecca vendors use a mechanical ice crusher, rather than shaving or grating the ice by hand; some vendors believe that using a machine is more hygienic compared to hand shaving the ice. The kiosk Alla fonte d'oro is the oldest in the city, and has served Romans and tourists since 1913. The kiosk uses machine-grated ice, rather than grating it by hand.
