If anything they and Mikey's will challenge and hopefully drive out the crap.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-89871339390837852122018-01-23T11:49:19.333-05:002018-01-23T11:49:19.333-05:00Does anyone remember the ice cream store that B&am...Does anyone remember the ice cream store that B&J's ripped off for the recipes? The store had the signature Cherry Garcia before B&J had it. I remember sampling it.

Now, since we've been overrun with other frozen dessert establishments, not so much, hence my comment. And yes, Anon. 12:38, you're correct re Steve's going into the old Orchidia space.

I mean technically yeah but I give props to B&J for opening in areas in the city alot of non-burger/bank chains wouldn't open in like East Harlem (and the East Village in the late '80s or early '90s.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-76571721515576176142018-01-22T12:38:15.323-05:002018-01-22T12:38:15.323-05:00I believe after Orchidia it was briefly "Stev...I believe after Orchidia it was briefly "Steve's Ice Cream", not Ben and Jerry's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-234221816318759832018-01-22T12:36:24.368-05:002018-01-22T12:36:24.368-05:00If these are their winter hours, what can we expec...If these are their winter hours, what can we expect during peak season?

(Sorry, Sundaes & Cones on 10th St., you're too chaotic and expensive for me - and you have NO idea how to make a real egg cream, even after it was explained to you that a REAL egg cream does NOT have ice cream in it.)<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-12294705494496907032018-01-22T10:05:28.731-05:002018-01-22T10:05:28.731-05:00Eh, I'll pick up a pint next time I'm at t...Eh, I'll pick up a pint next time I'm at the grocery store.
