If you have a special guy in your life and you want to please him, give him Ed's. I love getting Ed's so much. I-scream when I get Ed's. But read on below and I'll give you the real scoop.
What to get: Coffee Ice Cream, Rhubarb Ice Cream, Creme Brulee Ice Cream, or anything really.
What not to get: French Mint, or anything French ever. Just kidding. Really truly kidding.
One of the best ice cream shops in North America, and easily the best I've tried in Canada eh. The Coffee, Rhubarb, Creme Brulee, and others, are some of the best flavours I've tried anywhere. I'm not sure what makes Ed's so good but there's a reason all the boys and all the girls always seem to want to be given some Ed.
I'm writing this with Mouthwash in my mouth, so the pain is borderline excruciating, but even that does not compare to the pain of not being able to go to Ed's on any given day (grr, border crossing). I do go whenever I'm in Toronto though, and I squeal with delight when they have Rhubarb. I mean who even does Rhubarb anything ever? But I love it.
Other than that, the Créme Brulée is the one that rocks my world. It's heavenly and perfect. The Burnt Marshmallow is one of the most popular but is just good, not great. The French Mint is hyper-minty and not too good.
The prices are okay, the service is nice, and the clentele are very... well, white. I felt like a real immigrant and dark-skinned foreigner while in here. Oh wait, I kind of am by some questionable Trumpian yardsticks. But still. It was nice to see how the other half of Toronto live. Lots of summer mothers with prams and push chairs or on their bikes with all the hipster-meets-suburbia chic going on up and down this street. But with this ice cream being, by far, the highlight.
If you want to try some amazing homemade ice cream, go 'Ed and go to Ed's. Getting Ed's isn't just something that guys love. It's something that girls adore too. Especially when it's done right.
And Ed's does it right.
