Jack's Gelato

The 18 Best Cambridge Restaurants | Eater London

"Jack van Praag was a chef before he became a gelato master, working at the likes of Cotto, a revered Cambridge fine dining restaurant eventually forced to close by COVID-19, and at California institution Chez Panisse. But since 2010, he’s kept things frosty, doling out the best ice cream in the city (despite some worthy competition from Sicilian specialists Aromi). The original shop, on Bene’t Street, is the place to go for flavours that range from the beautiful simplicity of dark chocolate and sea salt to boozy ice cream — say, Japanese whisky or Barbados rum — that comes with a shot of its main ingredient for some added pep." - James Hansen
