    Not all Mr. Softee trucks in Brooklyn are the same. This is this truck's 25th year at the corner of Newkirk and Coney Island Avenues and Ali who drives the truck still only charges $2/cone for soft ice cream and $2.75 for two scoops of hard ice cream! Ali is known by hundreds of kids (and their parents) as the friendly man who does not raise his prices when everyone else does and who always has a kind word for each and every customer! Likewise unlike the unlicensed push carts that the city does not shut down, he keeps his truck spotless and is out on the street from early March through the first flakes of snow in the autumn. And for those who observe religious dietary laws, his soft ice cream is Kosher. In addition to soft ice cream and ice cream bars, he sells exceptionally good grape nut, strawberry, cookies and cream, rum raisin and pistachio hard ice cream and all sorts of ice cream bars. On a budget? He sells Marino Ices for the same price ($1) as the illegal unlicensed carts! In short, Ali may sell the same ice cream as the other Mr, Softee trucks, but what he gives in goodwill has no price!

    Decently priced ice cream cake in Brooklyn with Asian flavors. Their online ordering form makes it…read morevery convenient to get a cake from here. Upon submitting the online order, I received a text confirming the order. I was able to confirm the price. They were going to charge me an extra $12 for the outline of Crayon Shin-Chan's face that I requested. They said it wasn't a simple drawing, which I didn't realize, so I swiftly changed it to just mini cone designs. The mini cone design was a good call because they added different flavored ice creams that I didn't choose for the cake to the cones. One of the ice cream cone flavors was orange or something, which I don't think I saw as an option on the ordering form, making it even better and allowing us to try even more flavors! It was $65.33 (incl tax) for 3 flavors for the second biggest size cake (I think it was for 10-12 ppl). The three flavors I got for the cake were: Cookies and cream - 3.5/5 My least favorite flavor here even though I generally really enjoy cookies and cream. Not enough cookies and the texture of the cookies is not soft enough. Don't think it will taste like your favorite pint of cookies and cream. If I were to try to describe it, I'd say it'd taste like a healthy cookies and cream? Taro - 4.5/5 My favorite flavor because the taro came through but in a nice, subtle way. This was also the least sweet of the three flavors. Black sesame - 4/5 Undeniably black sesame. The taste was very strong and the black sesame seeds gave it some texture. A tad bit too sweet but overall ok. I've gotten ice cream cakes from here in the past, and I thought I wrote them a review already, but I guess not.

    Someone got this over cream cake to ring in the new year and the flavors chosen inside were milk…read moretea and lychee that was shared amongst 5 people. Both flavors were good, not overly sweet. The two cones on the cake were flavors that we couldn't choose and it was strawberry and matcha. Personally for me, the matcha was a bit too bitter. Would like to try other flavors next time!

When I do this; I usually find " buried restaurant treasure". On a recent visit to Prospect Park, I decided to try a different place and got off the B16 at Caton and Coney Island Avenue. The place: Lark Cafe. I was in a mood to cheat and have a toasted wheat bagel with scallion cream cheese and a Chai. I got almost everything, except, wheat was sold out and chose sesame bagel. As I waited, I wanted to check out the adjoining ice cream shop that sells Jane's ice cream, made in the heart of the Hudson Valley. I will return for a future cheat. Jane's is known for popular flavors as Killer Chocolate, Blue Zoo, Unicorn Cake. My order was ready and one bite of the bagel: heaven! The bagel was toasted to perfection and the scallion cc was delicious. And what a generous schmear! The Chai was light and frothy. As I devoured, patrons around me were typing on their computers enjoying Stumptown coffee and iced tea. LC offers a variety of tasty options: whitefish on a bagel, smoked salmon, cheddar chive biscuits, tea bread, croissants, doughnuts.. The ambience is relaxed and there is a book nook if you need a good read. Lark also hosts private events and for families there are sing along and story times. The service is kind and my bagel was absolutely made with TLC. I left Lark happy and walked straight to Prospect Park. Off the beaten path is always full of nice surprises! "We believe in the power of kindness and of little deeds that make a person's day. We believe in community and creativity. We believe in indulgence and enjoyment. We believe in relaxing and reviving. We believe in good business and good people."- Lark Take B16 Lefferts Garden Bound and get off on Caton Avenue and Coney Island Avenue, @5 minute walk.

I also got the kale salad & was pleasantly surprised with it- it is hard to make kale taste good but this place successfully managed to do so. The roasted chickpeas & feta was a nice touch. On top of that, the tahini dressing complemented it well. I'd definitely go to this place again.

The jewish customers that stay here LOVE LOVE LOVE to stare anyone of colour down, i am brown, could you imagine how hard they would stare at anyone black? There is a cow shaped chair that is meant to be sat on, we were kicked off, but the Hasidic kids were not. The vibe is beyond hostile, i simply cannot explain just how much. There was a radius around me that no jewish person in the building would even dare to approach even if it was life threatening. The stares you get is constant and never ever will you have an experience from them that isn't different. They are literally bordering a brown community and they still act like this. They have an extensive smoothie and ice cream collection, it's pretty cheap i'd say, they used to have free chocolate chips.

Bright and colorful. There is an adorable ice cream truck parked between the entrance and the dining area. You can order electronically from tablets that are conveniently placed along the queue area. I ordered the nachos. The chips were nice and crispy. I requested cheese. It was very liquidy, cool, and had a thick skin covering the top. I also ordered some salsa for an additional $2. This was even colder and had a sweetness to it. Both of these were not the greatest nacho dipping sauces but this is an ice cream house after all. I would still go back to try some of their ice cream or smoothies. This is a great place for dates, kids, or families.

Ice cream was $3.50/scoop (much more affordable than a Park Slope ice cream shop which cost $5.50/scoop the day before discovering Kathy's). The one scoop was more like a 2 scoop serving and was the perfect size. Undecided at first because they offered a handful of flavor combinations I hadn't seen before and wanted to try samples were provided. The teenage employee was courteous and worked swiftly. The place was busy and we did wait in line a good 15 minutes, it was clear a second employee was needed. The midnight caramel did not disappoint. Hubby got his standard cookies and cream and thought his was delicious as well. This is obviously a very popular spot with the residents of Windsor Terrace and a neighborhood gem. I can picture the line wrapping around the corner on a summer day.
