Gelaterie
Lovely ice cream truck in the middle of nowhere: Manolo Nieves (24. August 2018)
There is one tourist bus in Oaxaca (as the place isn’t that large) and it costs 100 MXN. Worth taking (ideally the first day) as it provides you with a good overview over the city and its main attractions. On the tour, there is a short stop at some church and place (I can’t recall […]
Lovely Italian ice cream in Greece: Ninnolo Gelateria (2. April 2018)
The Ninnolo Gelateria is a lovely little place which serves good double espresso and has a decent ice cream selection. I went for three flavors (EUR 4.80): Mella Verde (which was somewhat more pistachio than apple), Rose (which did have a rose flavor) and Mastika (which had a Mastika flavor). While the colors of the […]
Not efficient but with interesting flavours: Heladería Rodó (15. October 2017)
When you are walking along the sea shore you figure where life in Montevideo takes place. The city itself seems rather empty. There is noone – literally, sometimes when you’re roaming the streets it feels like you’re alone there. And I’m not talking about after midnight but really just all the time. The Heladeria Rodo […]
Quite decent ice cream in central Prague: Amorino Prague (8. October 2017)
It is quite some time ago since I have been to Amorino last time. And even though the weather wasn’t entirely perfect in Prague, i.e. it was quite cold, there is always time for an ice cream. I went for the “large cup” (150 CZK). And the good thing is that you actually get to […]
Amazingly large and tasty shaved ice cream: Ice Monster (31. May 2017)
After ‘enjoying’ stinky tofu, a large portion of shaved ice cream is the perfect thing to change your palate. Ice Monster is apparently quite famous for their ice cream although I was not able to imagine why so. But, once you’re there and you see the portions, you will easily understand why. I went for […]
Lovely natural ice cream flavours: Gelateria Grom (10. September 2016)
We originally wanted to pay our back then favourite ice cream store, Cioccolati Italiani, a visit! However, as it was closed due to renovation (respectively “preparing itself for the future”), we ended up going to Grom. I always liked Grom but was never an explicit fan. However, I must say if you get “Caramelo al […]
Interesting Greek icecream flavours: Gelateria Il Posto (16. July 2016)
While the place looks pretty on pictures it is not a place I would usually go in right away. However, given I had local guidance, I decided to give the “Il Posto” a try. I decided to go for flavours I do not know – and the Greek dessert “Ekmek” (EUR 1.50 per scoop) sounded […]
Funny icecream flavours: Gelateria Santa Trinita (23. April 2016)
The Gelateria Santa Trinita offers proper Italian ice cream – but they offer also something more: True Italian ice cream with a twist. I went for the non-standard flavors: “ricotta and figs”, “black sesame” and “pure pistachio” (EUR 3.90). The ricotta you can barely taste but the figs are fresh, sweet and aromatic. What is […]
