Apparently I'm one of the last people to ever try Thrifty's ice cream. Blasphemy? Maybe. Am I now a believer? Sure. Haha. I don't get to eat ice cream very often anymore as I'm trying to live a "healthier" lifestyle but when I do, oooooh wee! do I love it! Haha..
I had the medieval madness which was a mock 3 Musketeers bar deconstructed into an nice cream form and the chocolate malted krunch in a chocolate dipped sprinkle waffle cone. Those little malt balls were so delightfully good, I looked forward to every bite.
The shop itself was simplistic, nothing fancy. Even though it's a commercial identity in its industry, it was lacking in warmth and welcome. Bright fluorescent lighting, clean but cookie cutter tables and chairs, and a beverage fridge. Meh, I don't mind it tho. The woman working was pleasant enough. Prices were extremely reasonable. I guess for most west coasters, this was a staple in their childhood. Mine was more excerpts of 'Now and Then' but I can appreciate it for what is it.
Love and hate the fact it's only a 10minute drive from my house. Darn you Thrifty's for your convenient location! Grrrrr hahahah
