Summer Time is the Right Time to Visit Buenos Aires
... conversations) under the shade of trees.
Also, you can spend the night with friends taking fresh in the sidewalks of Palermo or San Telmo. The ice cream parlors, another institution of Buenos Aires, become the meeting point of each neighborhood.
As a healthy tradition, the city offers free outdoor shows featuring music, theatre and cinema under the light of the stars. During the day, parks and green spaces are the alternative to asphalt. The city beaches are a new feature to the city, and there...

Different Ice Cream at Baixa
Since 2005 Fragoleto has set very different standards from most of the other industrial ice cream shops. They combine the Italian ice cream tradition with innovation. Plus they only use top quality fresh ingredients. Colorants and preservatives are not used on any of their products. This has made this ice cream shop, located right in the centre of Lisbon, at Rua da Prata (map), to gain recognition as a gourmet shop. It has already been considered one of the best in Europe.
Fragoleto has improved...

Ice Cream & More at Don’s Ruston Market
July is National ice cream Month, but even were it not, Don’s Ruston Market & Deli is one of my favorite places to stop.
Ruston is a small town (population approximately 765) in Pierce County, surrounded on all sides by the city of Tacoma. Most people don’t realize when they enter or leave Ruston, but if you’ve ever been to the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium, you’ve been through Ruston.
Owned and operated by Don and Beth Torbet, Don’s Ruston Market & Deli is the stereotypical...

3 Ways to Celebrate National Ice Cream Month in Dallas
Did you know that July is National ice cream Month? If not, here’s the scoop: Back in 1984, President Ronald Reagan gave July this delightful distinction, and made the third Sunday of each July National ice cream Day, which makes July 18th the special day for 2010. Reagan’s proclamation also beckons citizens of the United States to celebrate National ice cream Month with “appropriate ceremonies and activities.”
While those of us living in or visiting the Dallas – Fort...

Succulent Strawberries for the Pickin’
... (on a shirt), slap (on a hat), and slop (on some sunblock) as it could get truly hot.
To beat the heat after picking strawberries, head on out to an ice cream shoppe (either by the farm or another along the main road) for fresh fruit ice cream. A small serving costs $3.50, while double that would cost $6.
Note that the strawberry picking season culminates at the end of the month.

Freddo, an Ice Cream Icon Returns
In Buenos Aires ice cream (known as “helado“) is a serious business. It doesn’t matter if it is mid-July and it is freezing cold, most heladerías (ice cream parlours) are open and running, specially the big brand names.
One of these franchises is ice cream parlour Freddo. If you asked me a few years ago I would recommend you to avoid Freddo, but time goes by and things change, some for the better.
The story goes like this… Freddo started as a family business back in 1969....

A Strange Dessert that Thrills the Zenses
Photo care of Jayvee Fernandez
ice cream in the past five years has gone through major upgrades. Its derivatives and taste-a-likes have been grabbing a lot of attention. People are no longer excited with anything that comes in a tub. For it to be appealing, it needs to be homemade or it needs to be mixed in front of you on a cold slab of rock. There are also those ice creams that claim to be different like Italian gelato and lately, frozen yogurt!
So much emphasis has gone into making ice cream...

It might be called sorbet, frozen custard, Italian ice, frozen yogurt, or gelato. ...

REVIEW: Santini – Best Ice-Cream in Lisbon
Ask anyone in Lisbon about the best local ice cream, chances are they will tell you to catch the train to Cascais and direct you to Santini.
Opened for three generations, almost 60 years ago, Santini sells traditional Italian ice-cream that has been served to the national and international royalty. It is said that one of its secrets is the quality and the freshness of the ingredients, 100% natural. As well as the art to combine them.

Free Bee-Built Ice Cream at Haagen-Dazs on May 12th
