flavors tasted by me: blue bottle coffee almond chip and malted vanilla

flavors tasted by other family members (that i didn’t have): creme fraiche

review: this was by far the best place we tasted. the ice cream was so creamy and yummy! O.M.G. thats all i am saying.

flavors tasted by me: turkish coffee and chocolate almond brittle

flavors tasted by other family members (that i didn’t have): eureka lemon and marionberrie, salted caramel, dutch chocolate and blueberries and cream.

review: this place is great! the flavors aren’t as “sure of themselves” compared to other places, but they have a lot of nice rich flavors.

flavors tasted by me: peach and green tea

flavors tasted by other family members (that i didn’t have): mocha royale

review: this place was very good, although the scoops were enormous. i was like “i could go for 2 scoops” and when it finally came i was like this is two baseballs! but the taste was really good.

#5: Humphry Slocombe:

flavors tasted by me: toast and jam and blue bottle vietmanese coffee

flavors tasted by other family members: n/a (we shared the two scoops)

review: flavors weren’t that good, definitely the flavor was not defined enough and not as tasty as we’d though it would be.

and my extra one!

gotts!
