SINCE 1978
Dino Pavese, founder of Gelati Dino, arrived in Empuriabrava in 1978 and opened his first
gelateria. It was something new: Italian gelato tradition was different from the Spanish one,
and the intense flavour of Dino’s creations captivated both locals and tourists.
Dino has always been a restless soul, determined to do things well.
Even now, in his nineties, he remains involved in the company, inspiring us and keeping
alive the values that guided him from the very beginning.
