"For us, Tâm Tâm acquiring a soft serve machine is as important a moment in history as the world getting color TV. Tâm Tâm has put it to equally significant use by serving a mix of rotating flavors like durian or roasted corn soft serve sprinkled with corn cereal. Flavors change often, but we’re certain you'll encounter some sort of delicious swirly creation. Book at least two weeks out if you’re looking for a reasonable Saturday night table. But if you stink at planning, expect to sit outside. The sidewalk tables are for walk-ins, and you can call (they usually answer) before you head over to see how long the wait is. If you go towards the end of service, you might be able to find a couple of open bar seats." - virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer
