Do you know which ice cream shops use Mexican vanilla beans and which ice cream shops use Madagascar vanilla beans?
I don’t know of any that use Mexican beans.
Many use vanilla extract sourced from a variety of beans; others use Madagascar (Carmela) or a combination of different origin beans.
Waited on line Saturday night at 9:30 for ~30 minutes at the Venice location. The ice cream at S&S still continues to be amazing. The strawberry and toasted white chocolate and ooey chocolate brownie are heaven.
While we were waiting on line a bearded hipster in a green and white van stopped dead in the middle of Abbott Kinney, craned his head out the window and yelled “it’s not that good. It’s not worth the wait”. I disagree. And so do all the other people who were still waiting on line at 10:15.
I just looked up the special flavors for July - it’s the Berry Series. Yum. I need to get back over there before the end of the month.
The buttermilk with blueberries and wild berry sherbet were outstanding.
Buttermilk with blueberries definitely caught my eye. and the birthday cake with blackberries because I do sometimes have the sweet tooth of a six year old.
