Happy Choppper


Like Lamia explained in an earlier post, Turkish ice cream has quite a different texture to other kinds of ice cream. In fact it has to be chopped up with a big knife like you can see here. When I first saw these blocks I didn't realise they were ice cream, it even looks like it could be cheese.

I don't think I had this kind of ice cream when I was there. But I did have my first gelato in Bursa.

Well, it was chocolate, and I'm pretty sure it was gelato. I don't remember it being particularly chewy or sticky, and I could almost swear the place said gelato or gelati on the sign. But after 30 years, my mind could be playing tricks on me.
