Spring in Munich: The first ice cream parlors open - with new flavors
Ice cream parlors in Munich have opened for the spring season, introducing new flavors to delight residents.
After a cold winter and a chaotic week due to heavy snowfall at Munich airport, the city is now embracing spring with warmer temperatures and blooming flowers, leading to the reopening of ice cream parlors. Establishments like Riva Reno, which maintained a presence through winter with coffee and cakes, are excited to unveil new flavors such as 'Strawberry Fields' featuring mascarpone to highlight fresh strawberries and 'Sweet Alabama', a chocolate ice cream enriched with peanut butter.
Additionally, Carolina Czwartek, the operator of Riva Reno, hinted at a potential expansion with a surprise that may involve opening a second location. The anticipation in the community suggests that residents are eager not only for seasonal changes but also for the delights of spring, such as ice cream with innovative tastes. This reflects a broader trend of local businesses adapting to seasonal shifts and the tastes of their customers.
Tradition plays a significant role in Munich's culinary scene, and well-established parlors like Sarcletti are also welcoming back patrons ready to indulge after a long winter. As the weather warms, these venues not only cater to the sweet cravings of locals but also enhance the vibrant street life of Munich, marking the joyful transition from winter to spring with delicious treats.
