GELATERIA SOLFERINO
Read moreIn the heart of the Brera district, a small gelateria offering a selection of excellent fragrances, all of which are strictly artisanal production.
GROM
Read moreThe famous Piedmontese glacier, on the strength of its success in Turin, has opened several points of sale in Italy. The four boutiques in Milan continue to be very successful in both summer and winter. All the perfumes are made with rigorously fresh products, acquired directly from the producers. The most delicious recipes are Piedmont hazelnuts, crème de Grom (pastry cream with biscuit shavings), pistachios (strictly Sicilian) or lemon (from the Amalfi coast). Small detail, the cone biscuit is extra crunchy.
GELATERIA DELL’ISOLA
Read moreThis small store in Isola's area offers delicious ice creams and Sicilian cannoli and Neapolitan babas that will make you forget the surrounding world.
IL GELATO DEI MASTERS
Read moreOn the lakeside, we have tested a lot this ice-cream parlour and we can assure you: it is one of the best in this region of Italy! We come there to get drunk of the numerous fruit flavors or we opt for a more original ice cream as, for example, those with tiramisu, with honey or with cinnamon... The pistachio ice cream is simply excellent and reveals all the flavors. Unforgettable! Il Gelato dei Masters also offers very good milkshakes. Very friendly staff. Attention, payment only in cash.
CIOCCOLATI ITALIANI
Read more"We do it in front of everyone" is the motto of this amazing café, at the crossroads between an ice cream parlour, a restaurant and a pastry shop. Cioccolati Italiani does everything possible to fulfil its mission of promoting chocolate culture: a view of the production laboratory, dark and white chocolate fountains (where you can fill your cone), ice-cream tasting and a pleasant veranda. A real temple dedicated to chocolate served in all its variations; gelato, however, wins first prize: smooth, velvety, creamy, a real treat!
GELATO GIUSTO
Read moreVittoria, the founder of Gelato Giusto, is a graduate of the Académie Culinaire de France and has worked with Lenôtre and Valrhona... This should be convincing enough in terms of the quality of her ice creams, which have absolutely nothing to reproach themselves for. When she decides to produce a new flavor, she studies it down to the last detail and doesn't stop until she's sure she's achieved perfection. Alongside the great classics, originals such as ricotta, blood orange and pear-chocolate are well worth discovering.
GELATERIA DA CESARE
Read moreA Pavia institution! The store, just a few steps from the Basilica di San Michele, exudes the authenticity of the shops of yesteryear. This gelateria, open since the 1960s, offers excellent ice creams (the hazelnut flavor is absolutely delicious). Its unctuous hot chocolate is just as delicious, if ice cream isn't what you're craving in the middle of winter. Try it with your eyes closed! An essential stop-off on a stroll through the city center, or between one visit and the next.
