Fenocchio and all the flavors!

     I don’t know about you, but I think French has awesome food.  Especially awesome sweets.  And especially awesome ice cream.  There is one particular ice cream place called Fenocchio in Nice that deserves one blog post alone to itself. It literally has more than 80 flavors (“parfums” in French) of ice cream and sorbets, ranging from your typical chocolate to Bailey’s (Irish whiskey) to Calisson (French bonbon), to Chocolat Gingembre (Ginger Chocolate) to Speculoos (this gingerbread flavor) to Pistachio to Nutella to Rose to Avocado to Tomato….okay I won’t go on and on, but you get the idea, right? It’s like ice cream heaven. And get this—you can get up to 15 flavors of ice cream (but that will set you back about 23 euros). It’s crazy! And there’s so many people there waiting to get ice cream too--it's extremely popular with tourists and natives alike. 

    Me, I got the Nutella flavor (so good), and tasted some Speculoos (tastes like a gingerbread house in Christmastime). 

    Here are some pictures (unfortunately there was glare on my camera from the glass protecting the ice cream, so these are pictures from their webpage). 

     They look appetizing. 

    Oh, and I thought it was hilarious that right across the plaza, there was another ice cream place called Pinocchio. There was literally one person buying ice cream there—everyone else was at Fenocchio. What a knock-off!
