Today is very hot hot, so go to Chinatown ice cream factory! Split a pint of ice cream (chose up to 2 flavors) for 5.99, if you’re a germaphobe a cone will cost you about $3. So don’t be a germaphobe!
The Chinatown ice cream factory has been round for 28 years and has been a favorite to natives such as the Beaties Boys, Hot Asian Anchor ladies and now myself – believe or not! Why the fuss, well you'll have to try it for your self when your in C-town. Some of the unique flavors are, Avocado, Lychee, Taro, and the infamous Durian, durian for those of you who are not in the know is a tropical fruit that smells like garbage. Though it may smell like shit, people love it and are huge fans of it!
