Is it the best ice cream I've ever had? Maybe. Is it the best ice cream I've had in recent memory?…read moreDefinitely! And that includes a trip to Berthillon last week!
Just had 2 scoops here at the bargain price of 2.60! What?!! I'm not sure you can get two scoops of bad ice cream at that price in the U.S.
I probably would have been fine with one scoop, but I was having a hard time choosing a flavor, and it was a bargain, and I go home in a week...Anyway, with one of the server's help, I decided on a scoop of Ferrero Rocher and a scoop of lemon sorbet. I knew I wanted to try something chocolatey (because chocolate has not failed me in either Germany or Belgium so far, and Aachen is this hybrid city,) and thought about how I always love orange and chocolate combinations. So wouldn't lemon and chocolate be nice?- I couldn't be more wrong.
The lemon sorbet was good, and, perhaps the most pristinely white food I've ever eaten. However, it probably would have paired better with something more fruity.
Now, the Ferrero Rocher! This is the best thing I've had on my 6 week trip to Europe in the sense that I did not want the experience to end!!!!
So I guess I would recommend it. ;) Yes, without a doubt I would! And the lesson learned here is, if you are in one of Western Europe's best ice cream towns, and there is a choice of Ferraro Rocher ice cream (and you love chocolate, hazelnuts and Ferrero Rocher), ask for two scoops!!!
