Mister Softee of Houston

Iconic East Coast Ice Cream Truck Mister Softee Opens in Houston | Eater Houston

"An iconic East Coast soft-serve truck that rolled into Houston in November, this roaming vendor brings the chain’s vintage jingle and towering swirly cones—often crusted with sprinkles and dipped in cherry or chocolate—to local spots. Without a permanent parking location yet, the truck has been appearing at venues such as the Museum of Fine Arts Houston, an H.E.B. parking lot in Pearland, and Walking Stick Brewery, and it posts its daily whereabouts on social media. The menu mirrors the longtime 1956-founded chain’s classics: sweet vanilla soft-serve, crushed-cherry and pineapple toppings over soft-serve, shakes, ice cream floats, and sundaes, making it a highly Instagrammable, quick-serve treat option for Houston visitors and residents." - Amy McCarthy
