Of course while trying to decide what flavor ice cream to get, I saw that they had hotdogs, and even chili hotdogs as well. I knew that I was definitely not getting a lunch from any other location, as my meal was definitely complete. Seeing how they had ice cream any way I wanted with a scoop or two, or even as a shake. Of course once I had gave them my order, it took only like 5 minutes to get my food which was good, considering that a few people started to show up behind me. I mean it was lunch time, so that was to be expected. Of course my meal did include a bag of chips, and a can of soda. I liked not only how the ice cream was throughout blended, but that it was really smooth and creamy as well. I liked how the hotdog, was not only fresh from the roller, but that it was totally drenched in chili. Just the way I like it, so I get a complete mixture with the various flavors in every bite.

You get 3 scoops of ice cream & waffle cone chips, best thing ever!! We got butter pecan, lady bug and daily grind. All 3 flavors were really good. Overall they had a decent selection of flavors to choose from. They have plenty of seating inside as well as some picnic tables outside. They have some candy and sodas for sale as well. Generally they have a sweet treat from everyone. There wasn't too much interaction with staff outside of ordering but everyone seemed nice enough. Parking is easy as it's in a smaller strip mall.

They have plenty of seating and great outdoor space. The staff is wonderful, plenty of flavors, popcorn, and reasonably priced. They also offered great recommendations which I tried- The Blueberry Waffle and Strawberry chocolate coated cup was just under $10. You're warned: This might be habit forming!! It's true so tread lightly. It was a great choice after my Sunday thrifting escapades. Scored a great Valentina, great way to celebrate!!!

Ben Neumann has been around for about 10 years. If you love a variety of pies this is your place…read more My favorites are the thaw and serve and many have a pretzel crust or a cookie crust. Most are seasonal and I'm glad it's fruit pie time. I recently got the Margarita pie. Two of us go through it in 3 days. Nothing better to do than eat pie all weekend, especially these. My other favorite is the tiger striped chocolate cream. He does savory and also hand pies if you want to sample or eat it on the spot. He started a variety of ice creams, too. All your ordering is on line then you arrange a pick up time. So get on the list. He has set up his garage for all the sales. If you ever want a pie in your face, better hope it's from here.

Perfect place to head over on a hot summer evening to have ice cream, popsicles, or even salty munchies. They have water based popsicles and cream based ones. They also have chocolate covered cream based popsicles or bananas. Super fun flavors such as Kiwi-Strawberry, Passionfruit, Watermelon, and Mango in the water based and flavors like Rum Raisin, Tres Leches,Tiramasu, and Caramel in the cream flavors. I had the Strawberry water based popsicle and it was delicious. Had a fresh strawberry flavor to it rather than artificial strawberry flavoring. Also had the Tres Leches ice cream and it actually had cookie pieces in it! Creamy and delicious as well. They had so many other fun ice cream things that I need to back for. Smoothies, half watermelon or pineapple filled with goodies, crepes, banana split and even Dubai chocolate strawberries! And for the salt munchies they have tacos, tacos in a bag, fries, elote and more! Spacious wide interiors, though not a lot of larger table seating. They had 2 patio tables outside as well. They have a wide sidewalk and plenty of parking to hang around while eating.

A fun new place in Blaine!…read more Micholandia is mostly an ice cream / dessert place but this location offers tacos as well. Desserts: I have only had a couple of the popsicles but they were delicious. I loved the cookies and cream and the tiramisu flavors. The frozen bananas look amazing and they have a variety of ice cream flavors (which another customer said 'you can't go wrong with any of them!') The fresh fruit waters look refreshing (hibiscus, horchata, etc.) I haven't been brave enough to dip in to the specialties yet, but they all look so fun and flavorful - mangonada, elotes / corn cups, crepes, nachos.... enough options to make your head spin! The tacos I had were just ok. I prefer pork tacos and they only offer beef, chicken and shrimp (and I believe a falafel taco!) Fries were tasty and service was great. This is locally owned place so check them out and support your neighborhood!

With that in mind, it is a pleasant surprise that this is such a homey, welcoming-feeling ice cream joint. The ice cream I got was truly amazing; I got a double-dip with Peanut Butter Swirl and brownie-something. Super good combination, and I wound up getting a pint of the Peanut Butter swirl to take home. It had such strong peanut flavor and aroma, I'm really impressed! They also serve 1919 root beer on tap which is awesome. Apparently it's all homemade ice cream, and it certainly has that flavor to it in the most positive way. I am going to be sad when my pint of Peanut Butter Swirl is depleted. I will return for more, no question.

In-house creamery, on-site made ice cream - 5 stars!…read more If any of you have read my reviews of ice cream shops, you know that I love dairy and I love, love, love in-house craft ice cream! You really can't beat the quality. And you can definitely taste the difference. This isn't mass produced Kemps or Cedar Crest factory ice cream - it's the real deal. I checked out Big Dipper after grabbing some sushi nearby. I stumbled across them while driving out of the big mall area. I'm glad I was paying attention. What a find! I ordered a cup of chocolate peanut butter ice cream. Yum! I'm jealous that I don't have a creamery near my home in the Anoka area. Thumbs up! -Maxx
