"1"^^ . "I have been coming to Sweet Republic before I even moved to Phoenix! For out-of-towners looking to make a culinary pilgrimage of the sweet variety, please come to Sweet Republic! The oldies but goodies are almond buttercrunch and salted butter caramel (always in a waffle bowl or cone).\n\nIf you are adventurous, please sample the seasonal flavors like chocolate rosemary (divine), brown bread (for St. Patty's day and delish), or something savory like blue cheese. I bring all of my out of town visitors here to this original location. It is worth the drive.\n\nAnd who doesn't love an ice cream shop that sells shirts that say \"Welcome to the Dark Side, We have Ice Cream\""^^ . . "2017-03-30T00:00:00"^^ . "2"^^ . . "5"^^ . "2"^^ . .
