Naming several signature flavors, Vespucci a creamy blend of Honey, Figs and Ricotta, purists will note Ms. Fontani's Straciatella to use bitter Dark Chocolate to good effect while Pistachio de Bronte and Watermelon Sorbet complete with seeds attest to quality in the purest flavors.

They have so many delicious looking and sounding flavors it can be hard to pick only two scoops. We both went with the house Bargello, and their cafe flavor. Creamy, smooth, delicious. Looking forward to going back and trying all their flavors. They had a salted caramel that was finished when we arrived. Hoping to give that a shot next time. If you're in the area, or looking for a quiet spot of the city to grab a cone, can't go wrong here.

As I was standing in front of the stand hoping to order, the employee was too focused on cleaning the waffle machine and ignored me. After a few minutes, he finally took notice. I ordered the Biscoff waffle (€4), which was drizzled with caramel and sprinkled with biscoff crumbs. The waffle was good, but quite messy to eat. In addition, the texture was soft and gooey that it was sticking to the cardboard making it even more difficult to eat. It's a bit pricey for a waffle and I did not find it that special to be honest.

But alas, I made purchases for myself as well as for friends and family. They are a certified supplier to the Belgian Royal Household. They use 100% pure cocoa butter and all fresh ingredients.

My other favorites include: Napolitains White Manons Salted Caramel Bar Hot Chocolate They also have gluten-free options. Walking into the store you're immediately greeted with the unmistakable scent of the finest chocolates. It's mesmerizing. The store is immaculate and so very Belgian.

They simply wait until a child sits down to kick them out, although all the chairs in the establishment are empty. I thought Haagen-Dazs was in the business of selling delicious ice cream, not charging children for sitting at empty chairs in a completely empty location. With many other options for ice cream parlors where customers are treated with respect and not as second class citizens for not speaking French, I'm surprised this location is still open. While your ice cream may be delicious, no amount of it could erase the sour taste left in my mouth due to the absolutely terrible customer service.

I'm glad to have dropped by and try some of the "limited edition" flavors as well as some unique ones I've just never seen before. In hindsight, I probably should have focused on getting those rather than the smoothie I got, because I just couldn't get my hands on those flavors after I got back to the States. Also, they have a bathroom on their second floor. Overall, it's a pretty small space that can hold a few parties that they expanded with a second floor that overlooks the first. Super convenient place to charge our electronics, sit for a bit, and a bathroom break in exchange for buying one drink. I ended up not really liking that drink, but hey: utilities. If you're interested in seeing what kind of flavors an American ice cream company (with a name that they made TRYING to sound European) puts out in Europe, I would recommend dropping by for a look if not a taste. For me, it's along the lines of visiting other countries' McDonalds and 7-Elevens to see what the similarities and differences are. Overall, I wasn't particularly enthusiastic about what we got there (like the Mango Colada among other things). Interesting, but this Häagen-Dazs location at the entrance of the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert's southern entrance and THAT close to Grote Markt (Grand Place) is by far NOT your only option for ice cream.
