Hanoi boasts an array of delightful ice cream parlors, but there are a few that stand out. If you haven't visited these spots yet, it's time to treat yourself!
Ice cream is a universally beloved treat, especially among the youth. For those residing in Hanoi, the go-to spot has often been Trang Tien Ice Cream, but lately, numerous other unique and delicious parlors have emerged, offering a refreshing change of pace.
1. Exquisite KitKat Matcha Ice Cream Parlor - 40 Hang Manh Street, Hoan Kiem District - $1.30/piece
Each flavor of ice cream has its own distinct taste; only the grape flavor isn't quite up to standard, but the rest are delicious. Each ice cream cone is reasonably priced at 30,000 VND. Initially, I only intended to try one, but because the ice cream was so good, I ended up going back for three more servings. You should definitely give it a try!

The exterior appearance of the ice cream is visually appealing, sturdy, and delightful. The warm, crispy crust is fragrant, and the ice cream flavor is delicious. However, a downside is that although the ice cream portion looks full, it's not really dense. Nonetheless, if given the chance, I would still visit the parlor to indulge.
