Spargel

Berliners are crazy about asparagus. I went to a restaurant yesterday with a conversation partner, and they had a special asparagus menu... and this was a place whose main thing seemed to be steak.

And the best possible way to celebrate asparagus season?



Yes, it's what you think it is, together with a scoop of hazelnut. It was pretty good, actually, though I don't think I'll make a habit of it.

  1. I loved spargel season in Germany! But I never saw spargel icecream... I don't know about that.

  2. Sounds just as good as eggplant icecream to me!

  3. does it taste like asparagus?

    and does it go with the hazelnut?

    and do you *always* get hazelnut, or do you sometimes get something else?

    It sort of went with the hazelnut, though not as well as I was hoping.

    And I don't always get hazelnut. I used to always get licorice, but they seem to have stopped carrying that. Which is sad.
