All their ice cream is house made. Expect the regular flavors, plus some unusual ones: Mexican chocolate, cantaloupe, and tropical flavors such as coconut and ube (purple yam). Long lines in warm weather, take a number just inside the door and wait for them to call you. 20 minute walk from the house, small parking lot behind the store.

One word: fried chicken. Ok, that's two words. It's what to get here. Also try the jalapeno deviled eggs appetizer. Usually a wait unless you go early, but you can give them your cell phone # and go to the Rock Bar across the street. Also open for weekend brunch.
