It's my roommate's (Josh) birthday weekend and its my mother's wedding in a week and a half. This created the conflict between choosing to go through an intense diet before the wedding or properly celebrating my friend's birthday. Clearly, as the foodie that I am, I chose the food route.
Josh found out, from word of ear, about a place that had Donut Ice Cream Sandwiches. That's right! DONUT ICE CREAM SANDWICHES! It sounded too amazing to pass up. Holey Cream was the place for this.
796 9th Ave, New York, NY (Between 51st and 52nd Streets) |
This place was just outside Time Square. We found this place in a quieter part of the neighborhood. This quirky little place would be an amazing place to go to during the Summer time.
The inside of the place was quite basic. A very typical ice cream shop.
Looking at the menu, we were searching for the Donut Ice Cream Sandwich sections, but it was no where in sight.
Still no where... Until one of the employers offered it to us.
So this is how it works:
1) Choose 3 different Ice Cream flavors
2) Choose either Vanilla, Chocolate, or Strawberry for the donut ice cream
3) Finally, Choose a topping
I chose Dulce de Leche, Peanut Butter Crunch, and Moose Tracks Ice Cream. Then I chose the vanilla icing and the classic sprinkles as a topping.
Everything they served was quite fresh. The donut was made right in front of us and the ice cream was delicious. Out of the three flavors of I chose, I thought the best one was Moose Tracks. The vanilla ice cream was smooth and the chocolate chunks were very complimenting. My least favorite ice cream was the Dulce De Leche, I just thought that its consistency was a little too sticky, although it was still delicious.
Overall, this sweet monster was well worth the $8 I spent. It was hard to eat like a sandwich so we approached it with a spoon. This place is definitely a MUST VISIT during Summer in New York City! Yum yum!
