5 minutes away from our house... dangerous! With so many flavors to explore and a sure shot for both sweet decadent and greasy savory treats, we'll surely be back.
++ Mangonada! Okay, full disclosure, this is the first time I've had this dish, but tamarind and mango are prominent in my food upbringing, so the slightly salty, tangy, sweet, and just slightly spicy fruit mix was a delight! Perfectly balanced in my opinion and I loveloveloved the spicy tamarind straw. Hell, I'd order it just for the straw.
+ Partner was over the moon about the esquites. Hot, and seemed like freshly cut corn and the mixins were delish but it was a tad too rich for my taste. This place is all about indulgence and this is no exception!
+ Water-based Popsicles have fresh, flavorful ingredients (we liked the spicy salty pineapple & cantaloupe) and pop in your mouth -- NOT watery at all.
+ Cream-based Popsicles are decadent! Super creamy (we liked the balance of the tangy blackberry with the richness of the cream cheese)
+ Ice creams are very decadent as well, stretchy with cream and sugar, and a HUGE variety of flavors. Cookie monster and this like... dried fruit rum kind of flavor were winners.
+ Both small and large sizes available of the mangonada and esquites
+ Again, DECADENCE! We got cookie monster as a shake and woof, with whipped cream on top it definitely feels like it's your birthday when this order gets handed to you.
+ And everything is affordably priced to boot!
~ Very patient and attentive staff, although some additional training time is to be desired -- poor girl was asking her coworker what almost every single flavor of ice cream was when we asked!
- Intimidating and uninviting when you go in because there is almost nonexistent signage -- only one menu by the register and some hand-written items by the popsicle freezer. Thank goodness for the ^item above^ and that we came at a time that wasn't too crowded because we asked a TON of questions.
