Amorino
This gelateria was founded in 2002 by two Italians who craft their gelato according to the purest Italian traditions and only serve it with spatulas, never scoops. The chain gelateria has classic flavors including Amaretto.
La Masion du Chocolat
Head to this upscale chocolatier in the summer to taste refined ice cream flavors like white chocolate and pistachio. Pair your ice cream with delectable chocolates and pastries. The shop is located in Faubourg Saint-Honore, one of Paris’ swankiest neighborhoods. Stroll the streets for an old-world Paris experience.
Café a la Banquise
This bistro has expanded its menu to include unique ice cream flavors. Located in Montmartre – home to Moulin Rouge and the setting for various scenes in the film “Amélie” – this neighborhood is sure not to disappoint.
Tuileries Gardens
After a busy day touring the Louvre, relax at the nearby Jardin des Tuileries. Dip your feet in one of the many fountains or visit the amusement park that is set up along Rue de Rivoli on the Gardens’ north side in the summer. To cool off, enjoy one of the many flavors of soft serve offered around the gardens. With the widest variety of flavors, the hardest part will be choosing your favorite!
