If you're strolling through Old Town and craving something sweet, **Old Town Ice Cream Parlor** is…read more*the* spot to hit! This place is pure nostalgia -- think classic checkered floors, vintage decor, and that cozy small-town vibe that makes you want to linger just a little longer. The staff were super friendly and happy to offer samples (dangerous, because every flavor is delicious!). Speaking of flavors -- wow. They've got *tons* of options, from the classics like Cookies & Cream and Mint Chip to some creative seasonal ones. I ended up with a scoop of Salted Caramel Pretzel and a scoop of Strawberry Cheesecake, and both were creamy perfection. And the best part? Totally affordable -- which is refreshing in a touristy area! This place nails that mix of charm, flavor, and value. If I'm ever back in the area, I'll 100% be stopping by again for another scoop (or two).

The prices were fair and the portion sizes were good! We took our ice creams to eat outside in the nice plaza courtyard next door which was perfect. Super friendly service as well! We were able to sample two flavors and decide which one we liked better.

After visiting a few of the other stores we made our way over to La Choco Salty & Sweet to grab a quick sweet to eat and support a local shop. From the outside it looks like just a chocolate shop, but the sweets section is just a small area up front and the rest of the store is tourist type products to buy like clothing, knick-knacks, etc. The sweets area is cute, they have a little cafe type area set up for a few people to sit and they have all the chocolates on display. Most of the treats look pretty good, but the prices are a bit high for some of the things. We generally enjoy grabbing a few truffles when visiting sweet spots like this so we selected four truffles to try. They do not have clear pricing in the case for the truffles nor do they provide any kind of hint to what is inside of some of them aside from the name of the truffle. I had asked the woman working what was inside one or two of them and she seemed annoyed I asked. We ended up getting the four we picked out anyway, and I was kind of bummed afterward. Not only were they $3+ EACH but they tasted like they had sat in the display case for several days. They were a bit hard, stale and didn't really have a lot of flavor to them so I was a little upset we had spent about $17 here on five things of chocolate that weren't really anything to write home about.

The location is right across from the UNM campus, which makes it ideal for students, but real inconvenient for others (especially with the current construction on central).

Last time i was there, their soft serve machine was down, which was a bummer, but luckily my free birthday cone will be approaching soon. The parking lot could also be improved, as this whole area is kind of shady (as the rest of central), but overall not too bad of a restaurant.

But if you're a foodie and love cheese, try it. It was creamy and cheesy, zero funk and pretty rich. I also got a scoop of the pistachios since they didn't offer 1 scoop options. They were generous with the pistachios and again it wasn't overly sweet. My friend got the watermelon agua fresca and said it was ok. I wish they offered a 1 scoop option and left extra spoons out. This place is next to five below and not inside the market.

I loved Yay because they didn't charge by weight, like most shops, but instead charged via cup size, toppings were endless. Okay, I liked it, my daughter LOVED Yay. And like so many culinary lovers of ABQ, one day the place just up and closed. We lost Yay. Boo! I'm happy to report that we got our sweet treats back, with some sandwiches, coffee and frito pie, to boot. The owner of Blackbird Cafe (a wonderful cafe just a couple blocks away) brightened up the walls and put together a great little spot for a cuppa joe and a casual bite to eat, and get this: No, the froyo toppings aren't unlimited, they're... FIVE CENTS. The first topping is free, actually, but after that -- oh, please, don't fleece my wallet -- five cents each. One nickel. No no, don't worry, I've got the check. Look, toppings selection is limited, so are froyo flavors, but I'm not uppity about my cold treats. I'm so glad I can continue to spoil my daughter on the Plaza, and I appreciate the Little Sparrow theme, and the lovely plate that held my brain freeze.

On a sunny Saturday, there were a lot of people taking in the smells and sights of El Vado. RBC had a collection of cookie dough pops, ice cream, ice cream sandwiches, and several different kinds of cookies and bars.

The samoa bar, although messy, had the right amount of chocolate (I love plenty) and the red velvet was soft, cakey, and big.

I tried a Chocolate Chip cookie and a Keto Samoa cookie. They were both pretty good. The chocolate chip had a sprinkling of sea salt on top, which for some reason brought out the flavor more.

I think I'll have to get it again the next time I visit. I received good customer service, which is hard to come by these days. Especially during this pandemic!
