No competition at all, the best of the best. Hands down, this adorable homemade ice cream shop uses local ingredients. Each time I treat myself to this excellent place, I wonder what truly unique flavors they have available. I continuously get in trouble with my wife by bringing home way too much ice cream than what will fit in the freezer.

If you like chocolate, then "I hate chocolate" is the flavor for you. Super rich. Today, instead, I had a special chocolate flavor: Late Night Chocolate Cake. It had, as you can guess, chunks of chocolate cake in it. It was a much more basic chocolate, though, than I Hate Chocolate. Not nearly as dark. I still liked it very much.
The other special I tried out was the real winner for me. Salted Caramel Cookie Crunch was a great classic salted caramel with the addition of some sort of cookie bits. I really loved it.
Other than the specials, there's generally a nice variety of flavors available, so all but the most picky of ice cream lovers should find something that suits them. Don't be afraid to ask for samples of some of the more interesting sounding flavors. The staff is always friendly.
