This house-made ice cream parlor gives a touch of cool to a mixed-use development outside EAV.. In Short
The East Atlanta area often gets labeled a burgers and beer 'hood, but this little ice cream parlor helps it ease into quasi-family-friendly territory. The old-school walk-up ordering system has one seating option and it's the way ice cream is supposed to be enjoyed--outside under the shade of an umbrella. The ice cream itself is smooth and rich, taking a page from the gelato handbook. All the classics are covered with appropriate coning-cup, sugar cone, waffle cone options--but don't overlook daily specials like "smurf" and "coconut-jalepeno" scrawled on the chalkboard outside. Besides your normal malts, shakes and amusing kid selection, made-to-order crepes offer an especially European (and tasty) option.
