| - I normally try to avoid dairy, but after eating across the street at Federal Pizza (and having tried Churn at Devoured a few weeks ago), I dragged my husband into this quaint little ice cream parlor. By quaint, I mean small, but it is also full to the brim with every sweet piece of candy my childhood nostalgia could remember. While I managed to restrain myself from emptying my bank account on Necco wafers, plastic army men, caramels, rice krispie treats, and local art, I was there for ice cream, and that's exactly what I got.
It was a tough choice between a strawberry shortcake sundae and a salted caramel freezie, but in the end I was directed towards the strawberry sundae. It was super creamy, the strawberries were fresh, the whole thing was really flavorful, and there was enough to share (but who does that? Get your own ice cream!), however - and this is my ONLY complaint - I was a little disappointed that the shortcake part of the strawberry shortcake sundae was actually shortbread cookies...not a soft fluffy piece of cake. Alas, my pain didn't last for long thanks to the wonderful ambiance and delicious noms, and I will definitely return when I find myself up in this area again!
