Frommer's Review

It's only right that a city with an abundance of tropical fruits and a year-round warm climate would have great ice cream. One of the oldest sorveterias (ice-cream parlors) in town, A Cubana can be found in the heart of Pelourinho. The menu is not huge, only 28 homemade flavors at any given time; the owners say they prefer quality to quantity. Try the unusual fruit flavors such as jáca (jack fruit) or cupuaçu, a fruit only found in the Northeast and the Amazon.
