4. Sundaes and Cones
Handmade ice cream since 1983

One thing that stood out to me about Sundaes and Cones was the exceptional customer service. The staff was not only friendly but went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience. Their passion for their craft was evident in every scoop and swirl, and they didn't even expect a tip, a testament to their genuine love for what they do. It was impossible to resist the urge to inquire about their ice cream-making process, which only confirmed my suspicions - these guys take great pride in creating their delectable treats. While I couldn't be entirely certain, the care and attention apparent in every mouthwatering bite strongly suggested that the ice cream is homemade.

7. Royale
Homemade molé sauce and organic ingredients

On another occasion, I visited Royale on a Saturday afternoon to celebrate a friend's birthday. I was pleasantly surprised by the wonderful ambiance and atmosphere of the place. Although slightly off the beaten path from the main subway, it was definitely worth the short walk. However, it's worth noting that the front of the restaurant is small and easy to miss. Despite this, the overall experience was delightful and left me with an unforgettable memory.

8. Davey's Ice Cream

One particular flavor that caught my attention was the mint chip. It was refreshingly light, avoiding the heaviness that sometimes accompanies other mint chip flavors. What I loved about Davey's Ice Cream was the cozy and nostalgic atmosphere inside the shop. It felt like stepping into a slice of my childhood. I appreciated that it didn't seem like they were trying too hard to be trendy or gain influence on social media.
