Great Ice Cream

by brookln231 at Citysearch

I just went here with my girlfriend and we both loved it. My girlfiend is a Penn State alum and she thought this was better than the creamery there. They have so many great flavors and the ice cream was so thick. I will definitely be returning to try some more flavors.

• Pros: Great variety of flavors

Not all it's cracked up to be

Saw it on TV and realized it was a hop, skip, and jump away. An hour later, I'm somewhat disappointed.

While the unique flavors make it a great experience for ice cream fans, funkiness is no substitute for quality. I would have liked to see the store use fresh ingredients with their ingenuity but feel like I've just had a bunch of generic Edy's scoop-o-crap instead.

Additionally, I had 4 flavors and 3 of them were freezer-burnt. Were the crystals Kosher too? Kosher doesn't necessarily mean higher quality, my Gentile friends!

If your interest is piqued due to the flavors, by all means make the trek and see for yourself, but next time I'd be happier with a pint of Ben & Jerry's or Haagen Daz from the market.

• Pros: Creative flavors
• Cons: The quality is lacking
