Music is awesome but I owe another kind of awesomeness a big mention. China Town Ice Cream Factory! Holy poop, man, my dessert treat was absolutely delicious.
Even though my friend Amy’s from NJ, she really doesn’t know much about NCY (it’s because she’s a blonde) but she had heard of China Town Ice Cream Factory so we ask a friend for directions and we’re on our way! We’re less than 15 mins from the place (which is bad because srsly, how can you resist not eating there every day? Thank god they don’t open every day!). But unfortunately, it took us a good 30+ mins to get there because Amy is a blonde and blondes always miss taking the right turns. Yes, I made another rude blonde-head generalization there, and damn does it feel good. Let’s see how many ‘it’s coz she’s blonde’ remarks I can squeeze in here.
So we go in (after it took Amy a good 10 mins to find a parking space -she missed two!- because she’s a blonde) and wahhh, something sure smelled good. Choosing flavors was the difficult part, and while it took me about 10 mins it took Amy even longer…because she’s a blonde. Sure everything looked delicious but I didn’t want to get overly brave since it was both our first times at the place. I played it safe with exotic strawberry and mango while Amy asked what each combination of flavor “tasted” like. I mean, there’s nothing wrong with asking a ton of questions, I’m all for knowledge and knowing what’s going into your body, but when she then picks two basic flavors (vanilla and chocolate) you want to slam your head in a brick wall. Of course, Amy being a blonde and all…no less was expected from her. I love Amy, really, I do. And she loves it when I throw blonde jokes at her, so I’m not really being mean. Right? *shifty eyes*
I’ve had some great ice cream (and I’ve had a lot of ice cream since it’s my favorite dessert) and this was definitely one of the best ice creams I’ve ever had. It helps to be a fan of strawberry and mangoes but even then I’ve had revolting strawberry and mango ice cream before so I know what I’m talking about when I say that this stuff is better than all that extra-sweet fudge cake that makes me gag from being too sweet. Ice cream is also healthier than all that extra-sweet fudge cake that makes me gag from being too sweet. Fer reals.
I’m going there every weekend…next weekend I’m trying the sorbet. Because they have some mouth-watering looking sorbets. *drools over keyboard a little* And the week after that, I’m going to be more courageous and try some combo flavors.
So definitely stop by China Town Ice Cream Factory if you’re in town. How witty! I just sounded like a bad (real real bad) ad, wooshwoooshwaaah.
My music ramble will follow shortly.
