I am participating in the Rhode Island Food Fights 9th Annual Ice Cream Event and this was my fifth stop. We got a little lost getting since it is behind a building with a shared parking lot. Apparently, this place is home to the donut bomb ($7.99) which is like a donut sandwich, where they stuff ice cream of your choice into two halves of a donut (no hole) and top it with toppings. There are also some pre-crafted combos like a peanut butter, oreo, M&M, and more. With my coupon, I was told I could upgrade to the donut bomb for $3 (the coupon holding a $4.99 value for a single scoop).
Since it felt like a once in a lifetime opportunity, I went for it and decided on the peanut butter one. My mom ordered the caramel single scoop ice cream cone. I did not spend too much time reading the menu, which I regretted since it turned out the peanut butter ice cream is a chocolate based with sheets of peanut butter scattered throughout instead of a peanut butter base with peanut butter sheets. But I did love how it came with tiny peanut butter cups on top. For presentation purposes, the whipped cream did look nice under the donut bomb, but for practicality purposes, it would've been nice to have the whipped cream on top. The donut was not too sweet, and was very soft, but I felt it took away from the flavor of the ice cream. I loved the peanut butter sauce on top as well. Overall, I would've preferred a traditional cone, but I applaud them for having something different on the menu that most people seem to love. The caramel ice cream was very delicious and generously packed with caramel elements.
The staff were extremely kind. There is a field to the left was walk around, or sit and eat ice cream picnic style, but there are also lots of seating to the left including some high top tables, a small outdoor patio furniture set, and round picnic tables with umbrellas. read more
