ICE-CREAM PARLORS
It’s as if time has stood still in this classic Turinese cremeria, where you can still find
individual fruits filled with ice cream made from their own flesh. If you think mandarin
and lemon are too run-of-the -mill, opt for the masterpieces in miniature with walnuts,
medlars and strawberries. In the last few years, Marco Marigo and his inseparable mother
Cesarina, the heart and soul of the store, has even introduced exotic fruit, such as whole
mangos and papayas as well as the omnipresent pineapple. Highly recommended too
are the semifreddi and ices such as Sicilian cassata, chicchi di caffè (coffee beans), fungo
(mushroom), tomino and gianduiotto. Traditional cones and tubs are always very much in
demand; flavors range from the most classic (the crema is among the best in town) to new
entries such as Noto almond and sour cherry sorbet. The place shuts at 8pm, so if you fancy
an after-dinner ice-cream eat early! Closed Friday.
