I heard about Chelita's recently opening and decided to check it out. I was thrilled: this is the real deal, one of the best ice cream places I've been to (actually, I'm scratching my head if I can remember ever having better). Not only is the quality, flavor, and service great, but they have lots of variety, including some unusual flavors (to me at least), with some using South American tropical fruits you never find in the States, or others with a little bit of spice added. The Key Lime Pie flavor—a delicious blend of tartness, sweetness, creaminess, and crumbliness—is in a league all its own. Go, you won't be disappointed, this is better even than really good neighborhood "homemade" ice-cream places you remember from your favorite summer spot when you were a kid. It's worth a trip for anyone in the Chicagoland area, not just NW siders!
