Review: The best ice cream ever! Nettuno - Salerno

This entry will be about again ice cream. Today I’ll share my impressions about an ice cream parlor, Nettuno. Nettuno is located in the city center of Salerno. Its location is very close to the main touristic attractions and sea side. For that reason, besides locals, tourist can easily come across to this charming place. It’s a good example of the combination of Italian bar and “gelateria” concept. It’s different respect to other ice cream parlors since they offer also coffee and salty pastries such as small pizzas. 
One comment from Trip Advisor commenter: You can't pass by Salerno's sea side without noticing the crowd out of this well known and tasty ice cream bar! As you can't pass by and not having the typical brioche with Nocciatella (a mix of chocolate, nutella, nuts and cream): the best ice cream I've ever had in my life!

I’ve posted lots of entries about ice cream palours on these days. However, Nettuno is quite particular and it has been always my favorite. When one of my friends comes to visit me in Salerno, I bring him/her always to Nettuno in order to let him or her have an idea about typical Italian ice cream. The service is quite fast and the quality of ingredients that they use, is very good. 
Like other ice cream palours and vendors in Salerno, Nettuno isn’t expensive as well. The smallest cone costs 2 € and with it, you can choose two different ice cream types. 

Even if they have small portion, their ice-cream types are very tasty and all of them are so delicious. My favorite one is “Nocciatella” (a mix of Hazelnut and Nutella) and for me it’s the best ice cream ever. It’s typical type for Nettuno.
The main reason why I love Nettuno is just because of the “Brioche”. In Nettuno, it’s possible to eat an ice cream sandwich made by Brioche. The taste of Brioche with Nocciatella is amazing. Only thing that you need to take into account is that when you eat a Brioche (even the smallest one) you can easily feel yourself full. It’s quite fulfilling.
According to wikipedia, Brioche is a highly enriched bread of French origin, whose high egg and butter content give it a rich and tender crumb. It is "light and slightly puffy, more or less fine, according to the proportion of butter and eggs. It has a dark, golden, and flaky crust.
The picture of Brioche was taken from "www.tavolartegusto.it". It seems delicious, isn't it? It has not very sweet taste and not very crispy.

Main ice cream types that can be found in Nettuno are: Coffee, Hazelnut, Pistachio, Chocolate, Vanilla, Limon, Strawberry, Tiramisu, Mousse chocolate, Banana, Panna Vienna, Coconut, Ananas etc. Among different types of ice creams, my favorites are Pistachio, Panna Vienna, Mousse chocolate, coconut and banana. 
If you visit Salerno one day, you will come across to Nettuno for sure. On that day, please taste these delicious ice creams.
They seem really delicious. The types with fruits basically made by water and fruit and they are not ice cream. They are sorbet and they are not caloric as much as ice creams. However they are tasty as well. 
Last time that I went to the Nettuno, I took a cone with Strawberry and Vanilla ice cream. It was so delicious. 

I strongly reccommend you to visit this beautiful city, Salerno. And when you come here, you should come to Nettuno.

The best ice cream of the world!

Adress. Lungomare Trieste, 84121 Salerno
