My friend who lived in the Portland Area recently moved to LA and asked I wanted to get ice cream. Now, I don’t love ice cream. I like it. I crave it more when it is hot but gourmet ice can change your mind about what you know to be ice cream. Nothing boring on the menu like plain old chocolate, ice cream or strawberry. And the title of each flavor at this shop is likely to be more than one word. Like popular yogurt shops they let you endlessly sample flavors. Considering that the flavors are so different, it is best than you can before walking on the wild side.

The proof is in the putting when you can bring friends back to enjoy the experience with you. We’re not selfish like Eddie Murphy’s famous comedy skit, ” I got some ice cream and you ain’t gone none. ” No, the more the merrier when it comes to sharing in masterful taste experience.

The banana split is apart of American culinary history. It is often associated a classic diner food. A banana split is an ice cream-based dessert. In its classic form it is served in a long dish called a boat. A banana is cut in half lengthwise (hence the split) and laid in the dish. There are many variations, but the classic banana split is made with scoops of vanilla, chocolate and strawberry ice cream served in a row between the split banana. Pineapple topping is spooned over the vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup over the chocolate, and strawberry topping over the strawberry. It is garnished with crushed nuts, whipped cream, and maraschino cherries.
