"Do goat cheese and habanero belong in ice cream? If you add malt to cookie dough, does it make it taste better? Those are the questions Salt & Straw asks, and the answers are probably not and absolutely, respectively. The Portland-based ice cream chain, which has two NYC locations including this one in the West Village, isn’t bound by tradition. In addition to signature flavors like chocolate gooey brownie and sea salt with caramel ribbons, they offer monthly specials ranging from huckleberry cornbread pudding to pastrami on rye. Some work better than others, but all of them are, at the very least, worth exploring." - Bryan Kim

But now, the Portland-based company is opening two NYC outposts, in the West Village and on the Upper West Side. (They’ll also be at EEEEEATSCON NYC.) Stay tuned for fresh waffle cones and scoops of Salted, Malted, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough." - bryan kim
