On the way home from the Flea Circus, we stopped at The Village Creamery on Waukegan & Oakton primarily because my cousin had recently blogged about visiting the Skokie store and we hadn’t gone yet…
We should have planned to eat dinner there and have dessert because there’s nothing better than a plate of Pancit but I had forgotten they had actual food and it didn’t hit me until we’d already started ordering our ice cream. Ah well, we’ll go back.
Anyway, about the ice cream… there were too many flavors I wanted to try and I was there with too many people who weren’t interested in trying unusual flavors so I couldn’t even bargain for a lick of theirs. I mean really, who goes to a cool ice cream shop with all of those interesting flavors and then orders… chocolate… banana… rocky road… java chip… seriously. I am not taking those people back to the Village Creamery until they agree to step outside the norm.
Thankfully I had TW and she ordered a scoop of Avocado. Awesome. I liked it quite a bit and would order it again. No problem.
I ordered a milkshake made from Maize… it was good but a little too vanilla-y and not quite maize-y enough.
I bought a pint of Queso (with pieces of Kraft American!) Ice Cream to take home…. I’m having a tiny bowl now. Mmmmm, cheese!
Uh Oh. You might not want to take me either. I’m not sure I’ll like avacado or maize ice cream. But maybe a lick of yours…
