The mural is of Slick Rick to coincide with the ice cream shop's flavor of the month…

I have weirdly had Mona Lisa in my head for like a week...
That picture will scare small children.
SLICK RICK!
One of my favorite old school cats. I am so happy Mikey is bringing old school hip-hop culture back to the Lower East Side and Avenue A!
Forget not the Beastie Boys recorded their first album on Avenue A!
Slick Rick's "Children's Story" is a wonderful piece of musical art, 30 years later.
Gonna stop by and grab some ice cream tonight. Love that place so much.
I cannot say enough nice things about Mikey and his shop.
Rick the Ruler has returned !
Mikey is the business. I love him.
If I didn't have to lose weight for health reasons, I would eat at this place every day.
