Berthillon makes ice cream that many consider to be the best in Paris. With such a grand reputation, I knew that our trip to Paris wouldn't be complete if we didn't visit the flagship store on Île Saint-Louis to have a taste of Berthillon's kitchen a la carte reviews ice cream. One of the best things about Berthillon's ice cream is that it contains only natural ingredients, so we are not ingesting the chemical preservatives, artificial sweeteners and stabilisers that are commonly found in ice cream. I read that up to 15 flavours may be produced everyday at Berthillon, and that about 60 different flavours are produced throughout the year. Since the ice creams are manufactured based on what is in season, the flavours are very intense and unmistakably true to flavour. Berthillon is extremely popular, and I'm certain that there is always a queue of people lining up for its ice cream during its opening hours. Berthillon kitchen a la carte reviews also distributes to retailers within the Paris region, and it's usually advertised quite prominently where Berthillon ice creams are sold, so you don't even need to go to the original kitchen a la carte reviews store in Île Saint-Louis to try the famous ice creams!

The gingerbread ice cream was surprisingly much like eating gingerbread, except the texture is creamy. The raspberry ice cream was intensely tart and distinctively raspberry kitchen a la carte reviews :
I'm a Malaysian-born Chinese Australian currently living in the heart of Hong Kong with the hubby, our big boy and baby girl. I have lived in Australia, Japan (where big boy was born) and Hong Kong (where baby girl was born), and I have an obsession with food - hence the name Expat Gourmand. I love cooking AND eating, and am constantly on the lookout for new recipes to try out and great places to eat at. My journal is about my encounters with food - full of recipes I've tried and reviews of restaurants I've eaten at - as well as miscellaneous entries on travelling and life in general.
