"Fantastic little ice-cream shop! Unusual (very tasty) flavours, home-made ice-cream, brilliant owner/service.
What a shame they are about to close - please don't. We wish to come to Winterthur again in the future and would really appreciate it if we could enjoy the ice-cream again!
TOP flavours for zesty fruit taste lovers: lemon with basil, passion fruit."

Winti hat sein Gelati-Dreieck: Neben Steibi Gelateria (Tabacchino) und Gelati Schulgasse, ist nun um die Ecke neben dem Riva die Gelateria Pura Vida eingezogen. Mit über 20 hausgemachten Sorten, schlägt sie das Angebot in der Steibi allemal. Ich persönlich mag die Auswahl sehr und auch die Qualität der vor Ort hergestellten Gelati ist sehr gut.
