TUTTI FRUTTI

Glacier

On the main road, in the center of Placencia, you'll find the ice cream parlour that produces ice creams considered by many Belizeans to be the best in the country. The flavors change according to the whims of the owner, who is Italian of course! Mango, banana, passion fruit, stracciatella or pistachio, you'll find all the great Italian ice cream classics. Special mention goes to the salted caramel ice cream, which is surprisingly Central American. This small ice-cream shop is one of the city's must-visit addresses, not to be missed under any circumstances.

This is one of the most pleasant places to take a break in the town of Dangriga. The room is large and tastefully decorated, with a pretty wall covered with Emojis painted by local youngsters and a superb exterior wall covered in graffiti, setting the tone that the city's youth love to come here to relax. A wide choice of smoothies, ice creams and juices, as well as tasty sandwiches and pizzas, await you here. Of particular note are the fresh fruit milkshakes, which are particularly tasty and pleasant in this often sweltering city.

MIMI'S ICE CREAM CAFE

Here's a truly surprising place. In the heart of Dangriga's main gas station, behind a small but opaque glass door, you'll enter another world and be greeted by charming young girls offering the best ice creams and sorbets in town in a cosy, well-decorated room. Brownies, cookies, sundaes and ice creams are on the menu, as well as a very good espresso coffee, which is quite rare in the area. It's the ideal place to take a break before catching the bus, whose station is right next door.
