Si Gela Krakow

Ice cream revisited

""Si Gela" is a creative Krakow ice cream parlour with many interesting flavours. My favourites? Carrot, gorgonzola with walnuts, ginger and black sesame..."

Looking for a creative ice-cream parlour with interesting flavours to try? Whenever I feel like discovering new taste combinations I would never think of, I go to Si Gela. I'm always sure they will surprise and inspire me.

Here's where I learned that poppy seed ice cream is way better than it sounds. My other favourite ice cream flavours at Si Gela include carrot, gorgonzola with walnuts, ginger and black sesame. However weird some of those might sound, I trust the creators - and they never fail to amaze me.

At Si Gela the creativity of ice cream manufacturers never seems to end. The menu changes constantly, but there's always something vegan (sorbets or ice cream made with plant-based milk) and gluten-free. Located close to the Vistula river and Kraków's prettiest bridges, Si Gela makes a great spot to stop for a special snack while having a stroll on a beautiful day.

Klub Kombinator

Nowa Huta style

"Klub Kombinator" is located at Theatre Łaźnia Nowa in Krakow and is probably my favorite pub in this part of the city. Good before or after a performance.
