SNIP
Ever since it opened in July, tucked between Chinese restaurants and spas at 10 Mott St., foodies from far and wide have been waiting up to three hours to get a taste of 10Below, which serves an American twist on Thai ice cream rolls.
The frozen concoction is created by pouring liquid homemade ice cream onto a cold plate reaching temps well below zero. Employees mix in toppings, flatten it out like a crepe, and then scrape it into ice-cold rolls with a putty-knife-like tool. The result is five cute little rolls with toppings ranging from fresh strawberries to a blowtorched marshmallow and Teddy Grahams. (The store offers eight different flavor combinations, each $7 including tax.)

Wait, what?
A non-Trump post?
How do these damn “20-somethings” look themselves in the mirror after standing in line for 3 hours to “instagram” some crummy little ice cream thing? Do they really think anyone on earth gives a flying bleeping damn about the insignificant and pointless things they do with their lives? Why do they feel the need to document every little thing they do?
Hey, I had 20 posts yesterday and not one about trump. Most aren’t.
Because they are self absorbed narcissists. That’s why.
They think that the world is excited to learn about this great new way of preparing an ice cream treat, and they are trendy and with it to be there.
Horrible. The best ice cream is silky and has a high milk fat content. I’ll wait for it too be churned properly.
There may be a dollars worth of product in that cup.
I have often thought that ice cream parlors where a good investment, I can not think of even one that I know of having gone out of business.
They have a local chain here called Maggie Moos that does the exact same thing. The one in my neighborhood went out of business. It was way overpriced at about $6-8 per serving, and not very good. My kids thought it was fun to watch them pound out and roll up the ice cream, but they didn’t like it the taste of it in the end. Just give me a good, dense frozen custard or a scoop of pistachio on a waffle cone. Heck, just a small cone from Chic-fil-A for each of the kids and they are happy.
How do you pronounce your FReeper name?
Coming up: one rude awakening w/ a large helping of reality if economies keep going as they are.
I’ve made homemade ice cream in less than 3 hours.
Here's to more of that! :)
I’m glad the American public hasn’t lost the ability to keep its mind on something for three hours. Too bad it isn’t about something worthwhile.
It’s New York City: this placed will be close in a year, replaced by some other temporary novelty.
