  I love the exotic flavors here at Chinatown Ice Cream Factory. The ice cream is well executed and the prices are very fair. The black sesame is my favorite and I always like to go once a week and check out different flavors.
  
  Its definitely not a typlical ice cream shop but they do have common flavors, so go check it out! Its highly recommended.

  After seeing all the rave reviews on Judys Book, It was a must for me to go and check out this place! and I'm so glad that I did. The ice cream is just amazing, and the exotic flavors are to die for. The almond is very good along with the red bean. I alo really enjoyed the green tea and the lychee, i am a repeat customer now and highly recommend anyone to go and try it, you wont regret it, it is definitely worth every penny, very reasonable prices!

  I was hesitant at first to try the exotic flavors but decided its worth a try, since there were so many rave reviews about it! I'm sure glad i tried it, now I'm addicted, and its so cheap, very affordable, surprisingly for the city! I tried both the red bean and lychee and loved it!, very great flavors and my girlfriend had tried the green tea, that was also amazing, its definitely worth the time to go and check this place out!

  they have so many exotic flavors here like ube, lychee taro etc. and they're all soo yummy i went here with a friend and i didn't have any money so we just shared a plain vanilla but even that was the best vanilla i've ever tasted. the ice cream is really cheap. if you're visiting chinatown this is one place you have to visit!

• Get the ice cream while its cheap

  I don't know how this place does it, but they offer scoops at super reasonable prices. This is pretty rare in the city where the single scoop of ice cream to make your pie a la mode is $1.
  
  I love black sesame ice cream and its not easy to come by usually. I love durian ice cream but I warn that it is an acquired taste...I have eaten the fruit before as well. This establishment makes it fresh so its extra flavorful and you get your fill for chump change.
  
  If black sesame or durian sounds too exotic, don't knock it before you try it. The flavors are always surprisingly creamy and sweet with a touch of flavor. If you aren't feeling too experimental then go for vanilla...they make it fresh with bits of vanilla bean. Delicious!
  
  These are their listed flavors link

  I went here because so many JB-ers had given it a great review I had to check it out for myself. Boy am I glad!
  
  I was expecting a bigger place, but once I walked inside the small shop, I was so excited by the out-of-the-ordinary ice cream flavors - I just love red bean and green tea ice cream, so happy to have found a spot to indulge!!
  
  The lychee sorbet was the absolute best sorbet I have ever had - didn't know they made lychees into sorbet, oh my, that is a flavor not to be missed if you go over there.
  
  Bayard Street is just a couple of blocks down from Canal, and the ice cream place is a block east of Hagen Daaz.
  
  You must check this one out if you haven't already, I agree with everyone's reviews, this place is fantastic!

• Ice Cream Factory

  When I first heard of Chinatown Ice Cream Factory the words lychee ice cream didn't really do it for me. But when I went there last summer I have to admit the ice cream was very good. Although I got the Rocky Road instead of the lychee. Don't bother trying to sit inside theres no room. It's better to take the ice cream and go. I definitely want to go back this summer.
