My favorite ice cream shoppe isn’t this one. I’ve seen ghost towns with more oomph to them… okay, maybe I’m not being fair – the temperature being a balmy -1 and all – but when you enter an ice cream shop in the off season the first words out of the servers mouth shouldn’t be “you pay first”.

Although, I had enough time to peruse their 72 flavours before he even ended his phone call to serve me, so maybe I was supposed to assume that we had automatically progressed past the point of greetings… oh well.

I had several difficulties during my ice cream adventure:my-favorite-ice-cream

  • It was dark (like, this place is closed, dark)
  • The garbage was nearly impossible to find – hidden in a countertop (why didn’t I think of that?!)
  • The napkins were also difficult to find – and only in one place
  • And finally… 72 flavours made it very difficult to make up my mind while the ice cream scooper hovered (finally) attentively on the other side of the counter

Some good things about my ice cream adventure:

  • 72 flavours of ice cream!!! (yeah, it can be a pro and a con.)
  • It was conveniently located in Garrison Woods on the route 7 transit line
  • No matter what temperature it is black forest ice cream is a win

My Favorite Ice Cream Shoppe’s located at 2048 – 42 Avenue S.W. if you want to go on your own ice cream journey (but beware – you may feel rushed into a hasty ice cream decision…)
