1. Zanoni & Zanoni – Vienna, Austria
A wonderful place to come for those of you with a sweet tooth. They do great breakfast, cakes and sweets but in reality you are only here for the ice cream.

They’ve been going storng since 1971 so you know they are doing something right. A huge choice of fresh and colourful flavours.
