Branson's Nostalgic Sweet Shops to Seek Out

"I loved the sense of theater at Mel’s Hard Luck Diner, a 1950s-themed spot where servers double as professional singers; the desserts are part of the show, and the centerpiece is the Avalanche, a $50 sundae with 14 scoops served in a 9×13 pan, full of classic and rotating flavors and piled with toppings like hot fudge, caramel, marshmallow, brownies, and bananas—I was even told that one scoop is about the size of a baseball." - Wendy Pramik
