Mytour introduces the impressions of Deer Hươu regarding Berthillon Ice Cream, about the place where you crafted your award-winning 'masterpiece'. It's really fascinating!

Two years ago, during a random search for my inaugural (and then thought to be only) trip to Paris, I stumbled upon the address acclaimed as the World's Best Ice Cream Shop – Berthillon. The journey to discover this ice cream parlor under the July sun at noon was truly not straightforward...

Walking past Notre-Dame Cathedral, pausing for a moment to listen to a song or a melody, or simply to admire the talents of wandering artists passing through the St-Louis bridge across the Seine River, you will spot Berthillon ice cream parlor right before you. Later on, I was fortunate enough to revisit Paris multiple times, regardless of whether it was hot or cold, day or night, I always had to venture here to indulge in ice cream.

Actually, it's quite challenging to pinpoint why Berthillon ice cream is considered the best in the world. But you should definitely visit Berthillon because there, when you enjoy a scoop of vanilla ice cream, you can still see vanilla bean specks atop; or when you savor rum raisin ice cream, the person next to you can also catch the rich and alluring scent of rum; or when you taste the créole flavor, the tropical fruit aroma makes your companion ponder whether to give it a try or not; or simply the pure bliss when everyone savors their first spoonful of ice cream... With standards as aforementioned, I believe it's more than adequate to deem Berthillon ice cream as superbly delicious.

Berthillon not only encompasses all the aforementioned elements, but another factor that draws Parisians and tourists alike to flock to the address at 31 St. Louis Street, Paris, is the stunning view from here. Just envision, in the glamorous capital Paris, you sip on a refreshing ice cream by the serene Seine River, with the distant silhouette of Notre-Dame Cathedral and the faint echoes of a violin or saxophone from a wandering artist somewhere. Perhaps it's due to all these elements that Berthillon is regarded as the best ice cream in the world, isn't it?
