Taste to try: Gelateria Confetti, Sofia

Ice-cream and other dishes, this time. :stuck_out_tongue:

We are transferring to Sofia, Bulgaria.

This is a place I have passed by for a while now. It’s like one of those magical places where you go and discover the magic at the backyard. Yes, this is a Harry Potter reference. (haters, activate) My first visit was because I only saw the small ice-cream stand through the window. A simple take away.

Taste was nice which turned my visit into a routine. Once a month, I am there. So there! The brown melted chocolate ice cream rules, guys.

This is how i discovered the back section where they have tables and the rest of the menu. There’s a summer garden where visitors can hide from the city. Partially but yet, that’s an option. It’s busy or booked sometimes which you can understand.

Unlike most Gelato places, at Gelateria Confetti, you can find pizza, soup and even steak. They even have lunch offers. (In case you thought of it: No, the ice-cream does not taste like soup. It’s an actual soup but curious thought)

They can do take away but no delivery. Which is cool. During the summer, mainly.

Whenever visiting with children, make sure that you should be doing most of the eating in case you order sundaes. The West has different understanding about these. Portions are big. Some have a surprise. Like this one :slight_smile:

Yes, it even had a toy inside.

Confetti is situated within the downtown area which could cause some trouble with the parking. It’s wheelchair accessible but no, it does not have a parking lot or something. Quick reminder: prices are good but be sure that this is a place you can go once a month. Or twice. Mothers with children, make sure that the little kiddos can’t reach the 90km/h from 0 to 10 seconds otherwise, you should focus on non-chocolate orders during the winter season. The summer garden is for the summer season only. monsters can’t be unleashed there during winter.

Also, beware: they are not a 24/7 service. Seven, yes but they close around 23h. It’s open at 9 a.m., tho.

This place does not have a personal website however, Facebook has a page for it.

In an urge to visit, you can simply use the underground to Serdika Station at the Underground (both the red and blue lines) or the National Palace of Culture Station (blue line), then walk.

With the local transport:
Stop Garibaldi Square (1997 and 1996) - tram 10, 12 and 18

For those who have already been there - should I be expecting familiar faces? What’s your opinion?
