I typically don't really go out for ice cream. In fact, I rarely eat ice cream anymore but when this opened and I saw it on yelp, I wanted to try it due to the stunning reviews about their taro/ube ice cream. Therefore when I had some friends in town, we took them along and we all tried this new place together!
The place itself is quite quaint. It's pretty small but the decorations are really cute. However, when we went, there was only one person working soooo it was quite backed up. There was a party of 4-5 that was already there. Then my group was a total of 7 people. So it took a while to be able to try the ice cream and pick. I mean, it's fine, I don't mind but for those that do, keep that little fact in mind before going.
You're free to sample whichever flavor that you want. I think I tried taro, mango, macapuno (young coconut), and heath bar. In the end, my friend and I decided to share a scoop of taro/ube and heath bar. I also tried some of my friend's cookies and cream.
The cookies and cream was amazing. One of my favorite ice cream flavors :D so it captured my heart. I rarely ever buy cookies and cream at the grocery stores cause it comes in such a huge tub and I could never finish. Now I know where to get my cookies and cream fix!
The taro/ube was pretty good. Has a nice flavor to it. I mean, I'm not CRAZY over it but it was decent.
As for the heath bar, I think I've had better. I think it needs more pieces of heath bar in there. It was really nice when I finally go to a piece of the toffee though!
I didn't really care for the macapuno mainly because I'm not a fan of coconut. I also didn't really care for the mango ... maybe because it tasted like they made it out of the dried mangos you would buy in packages. Haha.
The prices are pretty decent from what I've experienced. They also give you HUGE scoops. Also, from what the woman told us, they get their ice cream from San Jose.
So don't hesitate to give this place a try. Glad to finally see something amazing open on my side of town ;D
