Gelato Rajissimo is another name you might see in several locations throughout Copenhagen. This particular location is along is located just off of Gammeltorv (Old Market), the oldest square in Copenhagen, and along the Strøget (one of the longest European shopping streets).
This is a simple stand that sells churros, gelatos, drinks (especially shakes using their gelato and sorbet), and waffles on a stick. We started our trip down the Strøget with getting our treats here. Another member of our group got the strawberry gelato and trying it, I have to say it has a pretty great texture. My family decided to try out the churros, having thought it might be easier to share than the curious waffle on a stick. The one with chocolate and vanilla soft serve, named the Mexican, and it was definitely easier to share but not easier to eat. Melty chocolate and ice cream everywhere, so we had to stop on the side street to finish it rather than eating as we were going as we meant to.
My dad said it was the best churros he'd ever had, and I do think they were fried really well. I'm inclined to think the chocolate is a sauce rather than just melted chocolate, as it didn't harden or coagulate over time. However, it tasted purely of chocolate without the aftertaste you will sometimes get with chocolate sauces in particular. Hot churros and chocolate went WONDERFULLY with the cold soft serve. So while they have a lot of things that are great for hot days like when we were there (gelato, shakes, etc.), I can also see myself getting one of the hot waffles or churros here during the colder months. The churros themselves aren't very sweet, so I would definitely recommend it (with another kind of topping) to those who don't like things that are TOO too sweet. In the end, between everything they'd have, I would recommend getting the gelato, soft serve, sorbet, drink, or just any of the other things as long as it doesn't involve too much of the chocolate. Seriously, can't go into ANY of the stores with what we got. In terms of the gelato and soft serve I tried, both ice creams had great textures and lasted pretty well in the heat.
Overall, very tasty and fun. A good spot to snack, though heads up that there are waffle and gelato places all along the Strøget, including another waffle place that's actually just a few stores down from here. read more
