Delifruit - Icecream!!!

This summer 2011 motivated by my blog I've met many new places, specially to taste good coffee and icecream. This time the turn was of Delifruit, a neighbourhood icecream shop located in a corner, kind of hidden, in the limit beetween Lince and San Isidro. My best friend took me to the icecream shop to spoil me a little (this term sounds porn for me but I don't know any other way to say "engreir" in english) since I looked badly injured after my bike accident. I didn't like to find out the hours of opening published in their webpage are totally different than the real ones. For example, they say in their webpage they attend from monday to saturday until 8:00 p.m. and sundays until 6:00pm. At the door we confirmed they attend from monday to sunday until 7:00 pm. The icecream was OK, not good enough for me, but still tasty. The presentation was so poor, they served us in a coffee cup to take away (3 scoops) and in the coffee cup top (2 scoops), not atractive at all. The cafeteria is really small, it doesn't invite you to stay there. But there's something positive to highlight about Delifruit, this place has winned its public, many people young and older who look from the neighbor that ask for icecream to take away. In my opinion there's still a long way for Delifruit to become a recognized icecream shop or cafe, but GO!. The advertisment and the webpage is really well done without considering the incorrect info about opening hours.

Here the photos (post accident)

San Antonio - Coffee, sandwichs, icreams and more

Someday  I read in trip advisor that San Antonio was considering the best cafeteria in Lima. I still have my doubts but don't missundestand me, the flavor is unique and the service is so good. Is just that I know so many Cafés in Lima that is so difficult for me to decide for one of them. However, San Antonio is my mother's favorite. Their icecream are too sweet but stil delicious, the sandwiches instead are kind of light, not so greassy as in another cafeterias.  San Antonio  is more like a family place, my mother allways remindes me when we lived in Magdalena and we went to the backery San Antonio, yeap it is also a backery shop but not an urban backery shop, but an exclusive one. They also sell a great variety of chocolates made by themselves. When I go there I have like a family feeling but I still don't find  anything that make that place spectacular for me. San Antonio is a chain of backery shop and cafés, all are very similar and the public look elitist. I went to San Antonio of Magdalena and another in San Isidro, they both are quiet not like other cafeterias you enter and hear everybody's talk, it absolutely happens at any San Antonio. They seem to care their atmopshere so much. I was taking photos and an employee told me it was prohibited after I took a few. I understand they said that becaude of their customers.

Here the photos I took with my brother's camera:

Orgäanika Coffee & D'lites - A healthy experience

Nowadays it's like a "fashion thing" to be light. Anywhere I see people doing sports, eating healthier but it's still hard to find an ideal point. Little by little restaurants and cafes are adapting themselves to attend this growing public. For example, KFC before was a synonymous of greasy food, now they also sell salads!! Peruvian restaurants of grilled chicken now sell big bowls of salad too. And what about the desserts?? -  New icecream shops like Frogurt or this Orgäanika are becoming popular. I love this new places and hope I could find one near my neighborhood soon. I knew about Orgäanika through facebook, inmediately I wanted to go but their locations were so far from my town. Until today that I had to visit a client in La Molina, close to the Fontana Shoping Center and so I could finally meet Ogäanika. I ordered an icecream which they promote like low-calorie food (only 50 calories for each 100 grs) but the icecream machine was broken . Kind of dissapointed I ordered the organic coffee and it was delicious, nothing to regret. I felt a lighter flavor than the "normal" grans in the coffee, but it was good. What I love of this place is the fact they have a very nice space for smokers. Today is very hard to find a public place where to smoke a cigarette because it's prohibited in many restaurants and cafes. That experience was something new for me, smoking an drinking a good capuccino at the same time. Hope you enjoy Orgäanika some time.

I took this pictures frome their fanpage in Facebook:

Frogurt - Frozen Yogurt and New Concept

Hi,
Today I'm going to talk about a new place I've recently met. It's called Frogurt and it's like a light icecream shop. They say the icecream is in fact frozen yogurt (but there's also chocolate), it has 0 fats and only 84 calories for each 100 grs which is a normal ration. I ate 300 grs although and I didn't feel it heavy at all. In Lima this is a new concept on icecream shops because you can serve yourself as much as you want and put the toppings or fruits you want and then you pay the weight, awsome!!. I love this place and I found out some photos in facebook, hope you like it too.
