 | 	- Talk about a missed opportunity. Why The Big Chill doesn't offer flavours like:
Tom Berry-nger
Meg Chan-tilly
Gle(mo)nn Close
Jeff Coldblum
Kevin K-lime
is beyond me. This should be obvious, no? Am I talking crazy pills? Am I taking 1980 pills? Anyway, that matter at hand is ice cream and these folks do it well. The Big Chill is like an old fashioned ice cream shop with checked floors, pink and avocado walls and bright red bar stools. They staff is always in good spirits (and why wouldn't they be), and in the summer the lineup snakes right out to College street. Its a happening place.
They offer over thirty flavours of ice cream, frozen yogurt, floats, smoothies and milk shakes. I went in for a cone and sprung the extra dollar for a fresh waffle cone. 'Twas definitely worth it. I've never been disappointed by any the options I've tried, though I would single out the Pralines and Cream as a winner.
It's definitely a bit on the pricy side, but a kiddie scoop is good enough for me and costs $2.50. You can also douse your cone or sundae with a wide array of toppings. I recommend.
Obligatory Title Pun: Hold me, CHILL me, kiss me, CONE me.
Menu Readability: It's nearly impossible to read the liquid crayon on the glass, so I just point at the best looking flavour. Oh, but that chalk board is mighty neat.
Need to mention: They have a park bench outside for the purest summer chilling.
What this place teaches me about myself: "But Vivek, you forgot JoBeth Williams!" No, I didn't.
