Thanks! this is great, I love FREDDOS IN BUENOS AIRES(I am from Rio Gallego in Argentinas Patagonia) I can't wait to see these places ...Yum :jump: :jump: viva_espana

My favorite is also Sienna...but I go to the one on Alcala (near c/Maestro Alonso...by the plaza de toros) and also on Sancho Davila. I wonder how many they have? There's also a pizzeria/heladeria in Alameda de Osuna named Sienna...not sure if it's the same owner as the center ones.

Giangrossi has several locations. Also run by argentinos.

And I forgot the famosísimo Bruin on Pintor Rosales.

I am surprised that no one has mentioned the BEST place for ice cream in Madrid.

I don't know its name, but it is in Plaza Santo Domingo. I think it is next to a parking garage.

The BEST !!!

> I don't know its name, but it is in Plaza Santo Domingo.

The parking garage in Santo Domingo is no more. It got torn down a few months ago. I was never a big fan of their ice cream, but I think it was called Alicante or something like that. Maybe they are relocating...

Loved Ricci on Huertas!!! Went there three nights in a row. The flavors vary somewhat from day to day -- pistacchio was great.

I completely second Esperanza's and Madrid in May's recommendation of Ricci's. Their ice-creams claim to be 100% natural, which is why they change everyday, depending on the fruits they buy....
My favourite? One which name are some initials (all the names are in Italian) but that consisted of orange, lemon and carrot, if I remember correctly. Mmmmm....

if you go to Ricci's when they have Cherry Vanilla, ORDER IT! I think it is the best Cherry Vanilla ever.
