OK taking the fam out for ice cream on a saturday afternoon to a real live ice cream parlor seems like a great idea in theory but...
Lets take a few steps back. This Swensen's has been at this location ever since I can remember, 28th drive and Peoria and oh how I love my ghetto MetroCenter Area, MCA fo life y'all.
But just like the area is going to hell so are some of the businesses. Our waiter was a young lad, likeable enough but had way too many things to do to really give great service. He was waiting and bissing tables when then saw him behind the counter slangin sundaes.
Now my shit was good, some kind of candy bar sundae. But I asked for chocolate ice cream instead of the vanilla and got, you guessed it vanilla. We had waited so long for it that I finally just said fug it. I'm eating vanilla. They also gipped me on the sweet swensens wafer cookie and that is some low down shit.
My wife had a wuss bag simple sundae(she cant hang with the big boys). My 16 year old had a super chocolate sundae and my 2 year old, well she had a scrary clown deal. We all like the ice cream. The vibe and service just wasnt to par.
Grand total for an afternoon of ice cream with the fam w/tip - $29.00 buckaroos frenz. Now that is some insane dinero for metrocenter grindage....
