It's hard not to feel old when you roll with two little girls towards the local shopping center, while telling them with nostalgic excitement that Dad remembers how before there was a mall here we would walk from the old Golda Garden and play football in the woods that now stands the pompous Ramat Aviv mall.

was also hard to miss their lack of interest in my childhood stories, but it did not bother me. That's probably how my father felt when he would take me to Dizengoff Center and tell me about the Nordia neighborhood that was and is gone.
On the other hand, I remember how my dad would take me to the Tel Aviv port and enthusiastically tell me about the turbulent disco days at Montana Ice Cream while the older saleswoman would pour colorful candies and chocolate syrup that hardens instantly over the simple American ice cream - just chocolate or vanilla, or both - from the machine.
I didn’t mind hearing his “Lemon Popsicle” stories over and over again, because the ice cream was almost as delicious as it was simple.

A story of wealth.

The days of simple ice cream are behind us, but the experience of “Ice Cream with Dad Plus Nostalgic Digging” is probably a universal affair and crosses generations and sectors.
I arrived with the girls on one of the hottest days of early summer in search of the new local ice cream parlor in the Ramat Aviv mall, only to find out after a few rounds in the food court that the ice cream is outside the mall, on the ruins of Aharoni's ramen restaurant.
"Othello" tells a simple story from the moment you enter it, and it is a story of wealth. Visual richness, quantitative richness and especially richness of flavors. Before we get to the flavors we are told about the visuals that attack the diner as he enters the new culinary institution: a chocolate waterfall that fills the northeast wall of the place, turning the entire visit experience into a kind of journey into the fantasy worlds of Roald Dahl.
This is a lovable gimmick, which continues into the choice of chocolate syrup that hardens inside the special trophies that make their way from Italy to Ramat Aviv.
Bitter chocolate, milk or white fills the trophies as they would have been made by the lovable grandparents in "Montana", just from the opposite side of the trophy.
At this point it is already clear that this is not just a gimmick, but a deepening of the concept of the ice cream licking experience.

Includes a post-licking experience.

When the chocolate is good, and it is served along with hot syrup that flows out of the fresh waffle and explodes in the mouth in a celebration of flavors, who can even complain?
Then we got to the flavors themselves. The extreme heat of Tel Aviv led us straight to the vegan and cool side of the menu, which gets entrants directly and not hidden on the side - and rightly so. Matan Sela, the CEO and one of the owners, will say that they were selected after rigorous blind tests and found that the blind lickers could not distinguish between the cream ice cream and the vegan ice cream -
win win for
everyone.
Fresh, they import from Italy a concentrated fruit puree, which gives the sorbet its unique and deep taste.The unique chocolate flavors, whether in their bitter or salty form, will indeed succeed in trapping old vegan opponents.and the truth, when the chocolate is good, it is served with hot syrup dripping from the fresh waffle And explodes in the mouth in a celebration of flavors, who can even complain?
We left seventy and satisfied, after visiting the pleasant and clean toilets of the place, which reminded us that in any ice cream parlor that hosts children with ice cream in the heat of Tel Aviv, one should also invest in the post-licking experience.
At "Otello" we took care of the full experience, with a clean and aesthetic place, and made sure to send us back to the mall with ice cream-free hands inside.

Blessed chocolate tampering.

Apart from these, you can also enjoy pure pistachio ice cream, Jandoya Otello with hazelnut cream and pistachio chocolate chips, pretzel blondes, salty peanuts and chocolate, salty oreo and black Jamaican coconut, and also a chocolate dilemma (Grande 43% milk chocolate or Vietnam 64 % Bitter Chocolate) is complex, which is usually solved in the simplest way possible - a little of this and a little of that, and a little more of the taps of course.
"I founded Othello inspired by ice creams and chocolates that I saw in Italy and France," Sela said.
Vertical machine, balanced flavors.

The result of all these desires is a vertical production machine, which does its thing near the showcase and attracts focus and attention even from the spectacular chocolate waterfall at the other end of the store.
The machine is vertical, but the flavors it brings out are wonderfully balanced. A quarter of an hour of work, plus-minus, and you have fresh, ceramic, soft and airy ice cream, which takes only seemingly "heavy" combinations, and weaves them into a summer song that plays in your head all the way to the sea.
Alongside it, and if you continue the blessed chocolate treat, you will also find packs and snacks such as Nocciolata Dark (bitter chocolate 69%, hazelnut cream and hazelnuts in caramel), Black Gold (bitter chocolate 69% with salty peanuts wrapped in chocolate), or Blondie Pretzel (milk chocolate 41% with salted pretzel cream and hazelnuts in caramel) for example, and also "Rocky Road" or "Otlo nuts".
Prices: NIS 14-29 for ice cream, NIS 60 per pound, NIS 105 per kilo and NIS 7-39 for chocolate products.
