Galata Ice Cream and Desserts, located in Belmont Shore of Long Beach at 5201 2nd Street, proudly announces its status as the inaugural and sole Turkish ice cream café in the United States. Infused with centuries-old traditions, Turkish ice cream, known as Dondurma, hails from Maras, Turkey, where it is crafted with salep flour, an orchid from the Levant that not only enriches its flavor but also lends it a unique thickness.
