I love my ice cream. I wish we had more verity in India. but our ‘Fried ice cream’ is not bad.

Marta: Thanks so much for the suggestion. I’ve actually never tried the ice cream at Eos, but I’ve got my mind set on it now. Sounds incredible (I love mint chip, too).

Oooh, local organic icecream. That sounds RIGHT up my alley. I won’t be in the area for another few weeks and suspect I not be there before Christmas-themed flavors are on the menu. Actually, that probably is not such a travesty — I’ll bet Three Twins makes a mean scoop with some iteration of gingerbread or candy canes. (I’m kind of hoping there might still be a pint or two of the pumpkin pie hiding in the back of their freezer, but I know it’s a long shot….) :P

I used to live in Boston as well, and when I first moved here was bummed. But now there are some amazing choices, including the homemade ice cream made at Eos restaurant in Cole Valley. It’s pricey – $8 a pint – but I SWEAR by their mint chocolate chip ice cream. Their salter caramel, however, does NOT compare with Bi-Rite’s (Eos’ is way too salty).

Hi Lauren! Three Twins is great. If you’re a chocolate fan, they do a flavor called Starry Night that you should check out. And Humphry Slocombe makes fabulous ice cream. Try their Secret Breakfast — it’s an odd mix of bourbon and cornflakes, but it’s delicious.

Thanks for the suggestions for good ice cream places. I’m a Boston native living in Oakland, however, I’m continually disappointed that the ice cream places out here don’t match up to JP Licks or Herrells. I’ll be polite and not list the many places out here that I find sub-par. But, I haven’t yet tried Three Twins or Humphry Solcombe, maybe I’ll be pleasantly surprised.
