When was the last time you ate spaghetti ice cream? Or an Amarena cup? Here in Australia, you have to search long and hard for these iconic sundaes. But if you live in Melbourne or are visiting here, you're in luck. Because there is an ice cream parlour in Port Melbourne that not only has the ambience of a real Italian ice cream parlour in Germany, but also the original menu. The owner of Ice Cafe Venezia is called Rovena Xeba and is originally from Albania. We visited her in her ice cream parlour.
