After dinner, we hopped over to Ellen's Homemade Ice Cream. This small shop has a few places to sit, and from looking at their menu, they also serve lunchtime cuisine - wraps, salads sandwiches. It's right across from Taylor Books, and I was told that I must try their ice cream. Homemade anything tends to be better, and as ice cream is basically my favorite dessert, I figured this couldn't go too wrong.
We walk in, and the ordering area is to the left. I didn't see any to-go menus, so I was forced to use the large chalkboard menu on the far wall behind the register. I get that it's a cool little homemade ice cream shop, but I really hate menus that hand behind the clerk's head because while the clerk stares at me, I have to stare at the menu until I've decided what I want. So, I quickly picked two types that I wanted to try: Heath ice cream and raspberry sherbet. I simply asked for one scoop each, in a cup, so I could test them out. I was shocked when the total came to $8. For two scoops of ice cream? Plus, they charge 5% extra if you use a card. This place was getting low marks from me very quickly.
My two scoops are on the edges. |
