3 Pino Gelato Locations Opened in Tampa Airport, Florida


TAMPA, Fla., Dec. 11, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pino Gelato has opened three new locations in the Tampa Airport. In the main terminal, the Landside Building, the pre-security Pino Gelato is located next to Carraba's Italian Grill. After passing through security, travelers can visit Pino Gelato in Airside C next to Nathan's or Airside E next to Da Vinci's Café. The new Tampa Airport locations are in full operation under General Manager Tim Juul and Assistant General Manager Perry Karnias. Each of the three locations in the Tampa Airport rotates 60 flavors with a 12 flavor display case.
