It was about 30 degrees out in New York City, but that didn’t stop me from trying the famous ice cream at Chinatown Ice Cream Factory.
The scene:
Chinatown Ice Cream Factory is a tiny storefront in the heart of Chinatown. They had the most unusual flavors on the menu. Ginger. Wasabi. Pumpkin Pie. Zen Butter (peanut butter with toasted sesame seeds).
The food:
We ordered the Almond Cookie ice cream and Black Sesame ice cream. They charge a whopping $3.75 per scoop.
Almond Cookie ice cream - MMmm. So good! Probably one of the better ice creams I’ve ever tried. It’s so different and it really did taste like an almond cookie.
Black Sesame ice cream - This is the best black sesame ice cream I’ve ever tried. It’s creamy, nutty, and not too sweet.
Can’t wait for my next trip to try the pumpkin pie flavor!
