I am rooting for this place!! All the way from MD I heard about it a couple months ago and I told my sister we'd have to try when I returned to the city. I kid you not... I went three days in a row for a treat LOL. This is a Black-owned vegan ice cream (and cookie) joint. All of the ice creams are coconut-based, and flavors include Madagascar vanilla bean, chocolate, key lime custard pie, cookies & creme, and so many more. They're very generous about their samples, and they offer silver tasting spoons... so much washing, sheesh!
They also sell maple syrup in two sizes, and that's because literally everything is sweetened with maple. No direct sugar either?! Seriously, what a treat. And another thing I love about it is one scoop is only $4.99 -- for a vegan spot that's incredible. Now, mind you, it's not a giant Coldstone scoop, but it just feels better than paying the $7+ I'm used to seeing. They don't have toppings yet, but the ice cream is a treat on its own.
Now as for the cookies... they had 4 different kinds when I went:
Chocolate chip - I didn't get to try this one (and on my final visit it was sold out), but my sister was obsessed
Vanilla sugar - my older niece was obsessed, and I tried it and really enjoyed too
Maple pecan walnut - Not a pecan or walnut person, but the base cookie is so good it doesn't even matter. Wow.
Double chocolate - by far my favorite. The chocolate with the slight sweetness of the maple was such a hit I could've had 14.
I cannot wait to return to the city and see what new creative flavors they have. I'm invested.
