The 36 Best Restaurants in Des Moines, Iowa

"Alex Carter started Black Cat out of a walk-up window at a downtown bar and music venue. In June 2021, the ice cream shop found a permanent home in the former Woody’s Smoke Shack space in the Drake neighborhood. Many of the from-scratch flavors are inspired by local ingredients or classic Midwestern childhood desserts, such as peanut butter puppy chow, butter-flavored ice cream with chunks of fried Twinkies (a hit come state fair time), bomb pop sorbet, and sweet corn with raspberry. In fall 2024, a second Black Cat will jump onto the scene in the walkable Valley Junction neighborhood." - Karla Walsh
