Another great ice cream shop in NYC
stephiedooJuly 29, 2011
Why get the small for $4 when you can get a 20oz for $10? Share with friends or keep it at home for dessert.

Toasted marshmallow is so good!
Yiğit GülerJuly 4, 2016
Good ice cream. However they don't serve tap water and they oblige you to buy Fiji water. I think they don't care about carbon footprint at all. Avoid.
