I am enjoying the resurgence of ice cream parlours.
I can't wait to see the flavours in the new one this afternoon.
What's your favourite flavour?
Have you got a favourite ice cream parlour?

I've never had pineapple ice cream. I feel I have missed out on something now.

The best ever is Frederick's ice cream!
The best ice cream I had was abroad and it was a ferrero Rocha flavour on the market in los christianos in Tenerife |

"Where I live they do food markets I went today the ice-cream lady was there. Today I had salted caramel and peanut butter with organic chocolate praline mmm was lush  "
Salted caramel frozen yoghurt and salted caramel ice cream are both on my list of favourites.
I haven't had a peanut butter one.

One of Trump's many garish buildings in New York has an ice cream parlour in the basement (with indoor waterfall over gold and marble no less). I went for half and half peanut butter and chocolate with caramel and it was one of the best ice creams I have ever tasted. |

I'm sure the waterfall made it all the better. That does does sound like a fantastically OTT setting for ice cream. Opulence in all things creamy.

Here too if it's any consolation
We popped into a local bakers and bought a home made madeira cake.
Thought 'will have a slice of that with a coffee when we get back'
Net result : half the cake has 'mysteriously disappeared' and the coffee was left to go cold  |

Individual scoops in a cone were very reasonably priced.

OK, Scotty, let's not forget I'm in London and my reasonably priced is based on the fact that a single scoop of ice cream in a cone cost less than parking for an hour outside the ice cream parlour.

I've got three near enough to me. It was the first time at this one and it's the newest.
Since Marine Ices changed hands I've only been once and they have taken out the ice cream parlour bit. Still lovely ice cream but it doesn't feel the same.

Yeah those too - there's something very wrong but also very right about a scoop of ice cream bobbing around in a glass of soda |
