food: 0/5
ambience 1/99
service: 45/25

all the ice cream tastes artificial...and not the good kind of artificial either. more like the syrupy-sweet-4562cavities-waiting-to-happen-plus-im-gona-turn-into-a-diabetic kinda taste.

dont ever go there :thumbsdow

the fact his mouth couldnt physically close (it sorta hung open when he wasnt talking) was a little annoying tho.

I have no problems with it - better than any other place I've been to to get a hard ice cream cone if you don't want plain flavours...

I'd assume no - I've only ever had store bought ice cream.

The Ice cream shop across the street from Baskin Robbins on 17th I like a lot better. There are some weird flavours (the lychee ice cream is awesome) and its not disgustingly sweet.

The only baskin robbins flavours that I find are good are the cheesecake ones (chocolate macadamia nut cheesecake is :drool: ) - all the rest are just too sweet.

Phillips is overpriced and they are kinda stingy on the servings.

Yeah but if you're shopping at BR, the prices aren't that much different and neither are the serving sizes :thumbsup:

Plus if you flirt with the girl serving it she gives you bigger scoops ;)

I like 'My favorite Ice Cream shop' It has awesome service, ambience and the ice cream is really good as well. Not 'homemade' or anything, but if you're like me and your favorite flavor is more 'mainstream' then it's perfect! :)

We have a place called "Marble Slab" that's been moving into Calgary. I heard it's big in the States, and IMO it's a great place with an innovative idea.
