Ice & Vice

One
of the best parts of summer in the U.S. is heading out for ice
cream on a warm evening. Even if you’re someone like me, that always has
a freezerful of ice cream, it’s fun to head out somewhere and join
others who are cooling down, lapping up cones on the streets and on
benches.
The
most famous ice cream shop in Paris, Berthillon
closes at 8pm (and for the month of August) but younger glaciers, like
Henri at Glazed stay
open until 10pm. After a day spent hitting museums in Manhattan, we
wandered down to the Lower East Side to taste the ice creams from one of
the newest places in town, Ice
& Vice.
It’s
been amazing to watch the transformation of the ice cream in America. A
new generation of ice cream makers is using the medium to churn
up an original array of flavors and combinations. I’ve been to
a few places where the experiments were hit or miss (no, I don’t
want a whole bowl of asparagus ice cream with chocolate-clove gravy) –
but at Ice & Vice,
every scoop was a win.
