Was lucky enough to be walking along Bryant Street in Highland Park and saw people coming out of a shop I hadn't noticed before. It turned out to be the new LaScola's Italian Ice Store. I have tasted their product several times when they have a stand at Farmers'Markets, Vintage Car Rally, Jazz Nights at the Reservoir and even Bryant Street Fair and Bloomfield Italian days. They also sell their stuff at local markets.
This was their "soft" opening with their official opening happening this Friday the 13th! So, although things aren't quite perfected yet, I did manage to get a taste of their custard and it was great, better than any ice cream I ever had. Also, their ices can't be touched by anyone. The flavors are rich and inventive. They are also serving "Coffee" floats. The vibe was good and it seemed like everyone was having fun.
