Laozi Ice Cream (Pronounced like LOUSY. It's a long story:)

The Best Ice Cream, Gelato, and Soft Serve in New Orleans | Eater New Orleans

"Laozi — pronounced “lousy” — is Salvatore “Sam” Caruso’s labor of love, a homegrown shop serving French-style custard out of the back of Blue Dot Donuts in Mid-City. Another business born out of the pandemic, Caruso has a cult following in the city for flavors like oatmeal ice cream pie, toasted coconut, and vanilla bean chocolate chip — flavors Caruso calls comfort food flavors. Laozi uses “beaucoup egg yolks” for the custard, creating an unparalleled textural creaminess that melts evenly across the tongue." - Beth D’Addono
