An excellent option for ice cream on those hot summer days, The Big Chill is a big winner. While its has some tough competition from many of the gelato places that can be found throughout Little Italy, The Big Chill is ice cream in the classic sense.
It's not super soft the way gelato is and again comparing it to gelato, the flavour is not as thorough. Let's move on from the point that these guys are the only ice cream parlour in the area.
It's also important to point out that when comparing them to other ice cream parlours, The Big Chill is great, but not the best. They do provide a wide array of flavours, and have several cone and topping options, but as far as their ice cream itself goes, I've had better. That said, when I'm in the mood for ice cream, BC is always a good option.
