So the husband has never had frozen custard and it has been 4 years since I have indulged in the awesome stuff.
So while I was doing cardio at the gym today, I texted the husband and suggested that we get frozen custard tonight. I naturally went on Yelp when I got home and looked up frozen custard places. Luv-it looked like the place to go. But when I went on their website, it said they were closed for this week. So Nielsen's it was.
We live in the Summerlin area, so we drove 22 miles (or so said the iPhone) to Nielsen's.
I had a cup with a scoop of vanilla and a scoop of chocolate. The husband had the strawberry concrete. ("Concrete" is like their version of a blizzard, but SO MUCH BETTER!) So while the husband and I sat outside on this beautiful evening eating our custard, we could not stop thinking about the "real" coca-cola they had inside! Now don't get me wrong, the custard was amazing, but the idea of having a real coca-cola was definitely intriguing!
"Mexican Coke" as the husband refers to it (since I think it comes from Mexico) is Coca-Cola made with real sugar in a glass bottle. Now you can buy Coca-Cola in the glass bottles at like Albertson's but its not made with real sugar! And YES- Nielsen's carries the REAL stuff!!!
So after we finished our custard, the husband went in and got a bottle for us to share. Now this was my first time having REAL coca-cola since I was an itty-bitty kid and it was fabulous!
This lead us on a goose chase to find out how we can get more of the stuff. After asking around, we found out that we could buy it at Food 4 Less. The husband and I had many firsts tonight: his first frozen custard experience, my first REAL coca-cola as an adult and our first trip to Food 4 Less. We bought 6 coca-cola's and came home.
Back to the subject of Frozen Custard- Nielsen's is the place!! I will gladly make the 20 minute trip to Nielsen's anytime to get custard. The husband agreed that he now likes frozen custard and will be happy to make the trip with me!
