2013 Best Ice Cream

Toscanini’s

Owner Gus Rancatore is a bona fide gourmet, a guy with a penchant for combining unusual flavors and unique textures. As a result, his inventive ice creams—in flavors like goat cheese-brownie, bourbon flake, and even pancake—push the boundaries of the palate while remaining undeniably delicious. Our favorite way to enjoy his scoops? Nestled in an Iggy’s brioche bun and drizzled with hot fudge—it’s the ice cream sandwich, Gus-style.
