A Little Bit About a Lot of Things

I recently spent the weekend in NYC and met up with my co-worker (and fellow foodie) Cathleen for dinner. She suggested that at some point during the weekend to head to NOLITA and try out Morganstern’s Finest Ice Cream.

A modern take on the classic ice cream shop, Morganstern’s serves up some of the most delicious small batch ice cream I’ve had in a while. They have eclectic flavors like burnt honey vanilla, Szechuan peppercorn chocolate, green tea pistachio, banana curry, fernet black walnut, and raspberry aperol sobet to name a few.

The peanut butter picoso’s was rich – a bold flavor without being over the top. Morganstern’s does not use eggs in their ice cream and they use relatively low sugar and low butterfat. So what is their secret? All natural ingredients and fine attention to detail when they are making the ice cream.

I had the peppermint vanilla, not to be confused with that oh so sweet pink peppermint ice cream or candy. I like to think of it as peppermint ice cream for adults! The ice cream is…sophisticated.

There is plenty of seating inside, whether at the counter or at the bench along the wall, as well as a bench outside if the weather permits.
