BERLIN (Reuters) - A German artisanal ice cream parlour is asking customers to buy coupons, instead of hoarding toilet paper, to help keep it afloat as the government shut most businesses during the coronavirus pandemic.
Rosa Canina, an organic ice cream maker whose three Berlin stores were shut on Monday, said in notices on its windows that it hoped loyal customers would buy vouchers online to help it bridge the next few weeks. The business has been described as "a culinary Shangri-La for ice cream gourmets" by the Top 10 Berlin website.
