Caffé e Gelato (Berlin, Germany)

Potsdamer Platz Arkaden, Alte Potsdamer Str. 7, 10785 Berlin

Caffé e Gelato is a big café and ice cream place in the upscale mall on Potsdamer Platz. It offers a huge variety of coffees and ice creams, including the classic Italian gelatos (€1.40 each), premium (original creations; €1.70), and organic flavors (€2).

As always, I test gelato places with two flavors: Lemon and Stracciatella. Both are absolutely excellent! The lemon is fresh and zesty, the stracciatella is creamy but not too sweet. A few days later I come back and am more adventurous. I get two premium flavors: Sole Mio and Bacissimo. The Sole Mio is lemon with basil and is simply outrageous! The Bacissimo is nougat ice cream with full hazelnuts and nougat sauce.

VERDICT: 97/100

Some of the best gelato I have ever had.
