Worth the wait?
Friday, March 10, 2006
After three unsuccessful attempts at waiting in line here at Cold Stone (resulting in running into movies I had already bought tickets to), this Wednesday I decided to wait it out before seeing a show at the American Airlines Theatre. I spent 20 minutes in line and almost missed curtain. But I did finally get my ice cream.
Instead of plain old French Vanilla, I chose the Sweet Cream and added in almonds, coconut & chocolate chips (in order to compare it to my favorite B&J flavor). It was good. But not great. And not more than $5 great.
The mix-in concept is fun, but not at these prices -- your concoction may end up costing you a pretty penny.
I was thoroughly annoyed by the staff singing. Not only did it bug me, but it slowed production down a bit and there was a LONG LINE waiting for ice cream.
