  • Step back in time with this little ice cream/soda shop in Tuscola! It's about a five minute drive from the Tanger Outlets. There's free street parking!! As soon as you walk in, you see the soda fountains and display cases full of homemade chocolate! Just past that is the dining area. I was seated right away and looked over the three page menu. It took a minute for the waitress to come by with a teeny tiny glass of water. I read on one of the pages that the owner's are from Greek descent.... so I asked how the gyro was. She recommended that over the "Gusburger". I took her recommendation and ordered the gyro with potato salad (they didn't offer greek salad or fries as a side) and a strawberry shake (hello? homemade ice cream!!!). I looked around and the dining room was full of midwestern families.... all ordered burgers, soup and sandwiches. I didn't see anyone with a gyro. The kitchen is open so you can see the cooks behind the high counter cooking up whatever -- I didn't see a spit with the gyro meat..... and all the food came out fast and put under the heat lamp. My food came out within minutes! I was slightly disappointed because the gyro meat wasn't freshly sliced from the spit.... it was in uniform slices.... kind of like the kind that's in the frozen food section at Sam's..... and it sort of tasted like it too.... actually, it was tasteless.... the lettuce/tomatoe/onions were super fresh.... and the tzatziki sauce seemed equally underseasoned. I guess I'll order a salad next time. The potato salad was decent.... fairly mainstream. But the real winner here was the strawberry shake. It cost $3.50.... it probably could easily serve three people. It came in the metal container with a soda fountain glass.... yah, I filled it to the top THREE times. The ice cream was wonderful and the milk was fresh!!! OMG. My meal was about $9. Very reasonable. On the way out, I raided the chocolate counter -- got some of the famous "Paul's Pecan's" which are Turtles... OMG.... so good. Ok, so if you have a sweet tooth -- come here.... definitely!! This is the only place probably within about 100 miles that serves homemade ice cream.... I mean, not custard (like at Jarling's) but honest to good hard ice cream. SOOOOO good. I'd probably be more cautious of lunch next time (this is a Candy Kitchen.... not a diner!) -- it's not great, but not horrible.... but the ice cream shop.... YAH BABY!
