This will be one of the several posts dedicated to my yearly visit back east.
Thank you for joining me as I reflect back on my trip and food adventures. Enjoy~

After stuffing ourselves silly at Nyonya, we decided to leisurely walk over to Big Gay Ice Cream for dessert. We arrived to see a line that was about a 30-45 minute wait! so we decided to head over to Van Leeuwen instead. Van Leeuwen only had a few customers in line when we arrived so it was perfect. ^_^
Van Leeuwen had some interesting flavors such as Earl Grey Tea, Palm Sugar, and Ginger, but I decided to stick with my all time favorite of Mint Chip, Organic Oregon Peppermint with Askinosie Chocolate Chips.
Wow. This was AMAZING. It was a light, creamy texture of subtle yet apparent minty flavor with plenty of tiny Askinosie Chocolate Chips, almost like chocolate shavings, mixed in, all on top of a sugar cone. I'm drooling just thinking about it.
I highly recommend Van Leeuwen. You can check out their ice creams at one of their stores or visit one of their trucks around New York. You won't regret it!
