This cafe has an interesting gelato selection. Not sure if they discontinue in the colder months, but if available, I would recommend it for something beyond traditional flavors.

Shopping
There are quite a few touristy stalls, but also some more eclectic products. For me, the food market is the best part -- though be careful not to settle on one stall before seeing the entire range. I highly recommend the Venezuelan arepas.
