Helados Scannapieco … helado to die for
Thursday, March 18th, 2010Helados Scannapieco is the place for ice cream if you are in Buenos Aires. Forget the Freddo and Filippo chains, forget all the trendy, cute heladerías. Just go to Helados Scannapieco at Avenida Córdoba 4826. It’s been there since 1938, just 17 short years after my aunt was born. Perhaps she remembers it opening. In any case, we won’t hold its youth against it.
It has the ambiance and it has the ice cream. You can try the five different types of Dulce de Leche, but really, as far as I’m concerned it’s all about the Chocolate Amargo.
