Sweeten your Cascais stay with ice cream from Santini’s Gelati. A contender for best ice cream in the world, Santini’s has been serving its sweet treat in Portugal for more than 60 years. Begun by Attilio Santini in 1949, the first parlor opened in Praia do Tamariz and had people lining up for the Italian’s handmade ice creams with all-natural, high-quality ingredients. Today, patrons still line up for Santini’s ice cream in Cascais and at the urban year-round location in Lisbon. Eduardo Santini still follows the same recipes from 1949.
