We brought the kids down to Dempsey Hill as both parents had a craving for Ben & Jerry's ice-cream & smoothie. We love this quaint little outlet which also houses CA california, a deli that sells salads, sandwiches, soups and pastas.(note: its not Halal though :P)
Most B&J's “scoop shops” can be identified by their cutesy decor, with cloudscapes, meadows and cow print murals decorating the walls. This outlet sports a different theme as it resembles an american ranch home rather than a café. Diners can choose to sit in different areas. for example, there is a loft area, a living room (that looks like central perk from friends!), kitchen, playroom, and even a cosy fireplace!
Food orders are placed fast-food style. You simply queue up at the counter and pick your choice of ice cream flavor, cone and yummy toppings. They even have a designated play area/room for kids so that us parents can enjoy the moment in 'peace'. :)
