Spent the evening in New Albany and stopped by Boomtown for ice cream after dinner…read more We were the only ones in the shop when we got there so we took our time reviewing the menus. We both settled on a single scoop as we were stuffed from dinner. I will have to go back for an over the top milkshake or sundae! I went for a scoop of s'mores in a waffle cone and boyfriend went for classic cookies and cream in a cup. This is where there was a hiccup in the experience...boyfriend was served cookie dough, they quickly addressed that and my scoop was served in a cup. Seeing as there's an up charge for the cone, I politely asked to have a cone placed on top of my ice scream - no need to waste ice scream! She looked at me like I had 5 heads and eventually obliged. Overall ice scream was good and we were content. I won't go out of my way to return but if we're in the area and craving ice scream we're likely to stop by again.

Boba shop... where East meets West [New Albany IN]…read more Unlike in California we seem to have a boba shop in every corner. We searched for a boba shop nearby (and even not so nearby) and Mochi Wren Boba & Bakery in downtown New Albany came up at the top of the list offering an authentic variety of popular boba tea, coffee, and latte options and also a fusion yummy array of traditional Asian baked goods. Okay, let's go... Not far from Boomtown Kitchen and New Albany Candy Shoppe we walked to this boba cafe. It was a quiet Saturday evening and the we were the only ones in the shop the entire time we were there. We chose coconut milk tea and strawberry fruit tea for our drinks and on the bakery side we got the last two egg tarts left and a chocolate cake roll slice. I love egg tarts and theirs was just like the Hong Kong-style version of the ones we get in San Francisco Chinatown, lightly sweetened, flaky, buttery pastry and smooth. As far as the drinks we both love smoothie or blended drinks and sadly they did not offer this... hopefully, they can add this option to their menu in the future. Instagram: @mochi_wren Review #3879

Very tiny wine and charcuterie shop that is also attached to the Board and You Bistro and wine Bar…read more This particular portion of the company is strictly for purchasing wine bottles, charcuterie or setup catering events. It is in a downtown like portion of new Albany so you will need to street park. The few times I've went they have had a board and you punch buggie like car parked right in front of the entrance of this location. So that may be a good guide on where to park. In the past I had sampled some of the charcuterie and the cheeses, nuts and snacks in them are all very fresh and tasty. My wife had mentioned maybe having them cater our next big event. We recently stopped back in as my wife wanted to buy a bottle of a wine. She has never been a big wine drinker but she is starting to dip her toes into the wine world. At events with friends like bunco she has been trying some and likes it. So she came in here a novice looking for a recommendation on a good white wine that is a good start for someone who usually does not drink wine. The lady at the counter brought another gentleman who promptly suggested White Loire wine (vouvray). She gladly took his advice. I'm gonna be honest here for a second. There wasn't any prices listed that I could see. So I was kinda nervous what the damage was gonna be for a bottle. The dude could of really taken advantage of a few wine novices. However when the lady rung us up it was only $26. So not bad at all. The Bourbon I frequent is more than that. So no complaints here. After a few days my wife finally popped the wine cork. Which was a hilarious sight. As stated a few times already. She is new to the wine game. So we didn't have a wine cork. We used a steak knife and a some well timed and maneuvered rotations and viola the bottle came open. She really enjoyed the taste and I took a sample. I'm a Bourbon man and not much on wines. But it was solid. She was extremely satisfied overall. So we had a really god experience and a great customer service experience. They very much could of swindled us or tried and upsell us a crazy expensive bottle and changed the whole experience. Overall really nice place. Good cheese and snacks and a nice wine selection.

It arrived somewhere between 11:30-noon, and from what I've been told by others, flexibility should be expected. Delivery times are set with good intentions but can be altered by several outside factors. There was not one thing I didn't love - cheeses, fruit, salami, nuts and honey. I ate it for lunch, then finished it for dinner. One of my best 2020 eating days! Fantastic idea for yourself or as a gift, various sizes available. Make sure to book in advance because Board and You is popular.

There isn't a big menu visible and the girl behind the counter wasn't helpful at all. We realized there was a small paper menu available. I got a hot fudge sundae. The fudge was not hot and there was caramel on it (not requested by me). It costs $9 and was pretty small. You can definitely tell the ice cream is home made, but not in a good way unfortunately. This place is super cute so I hope they get better employees and step up their ice cream game.

The cake is very dense and then the icing is also a little sweet and thick. I would recommend a lighter like whip cream-esque icing to let the moist dense cake shine a little easier.

This was amazing tastes great, just one small note, there are some pieces of the cereal like big pieces so just be sure to chew. Overall I enjoyed the selection of pastries and will be back.

This is such an adorable shop, full of items sure to contribute to a world-class, delicious meal!…read more I explored New Albany for a bit today and wandered into Underground Station and into The Olivet. This store is small, but it's filled with so much. I loved the balsamic vinegars and olive oils that line two of the walls. Each type is available to sample from large, steel dispensers with a spouts. That's how I fell in love with the raspberry balsamic vinegar. It's sweet and rich, with a bit of tart. The shop owner came over and explained to me how she sources both the balsamic vinegars and olive oils from California. Some of the balsamic vinegars are thick and dark, like molasses. That's because they have been aged for 20 years. Others are much thinner and lighter and are younger. There are benefits to both. Maybe this is a sign of me becoming more refined in my culinary preferences, but I would have never geeked out over some flavored EVOO or BV when I was younger. In the past, those were the cooking ingredients relegated to the back of the cabinet or as the almost silent back-up singers of a dish. But I've grown to love tasting all the varieties and learning how best to use them, such as in cooking and on salads or even drizzled over ice cream. The Olivet also has a wall of spices, including special spice blends. These. Smelled. Amazing. Can't wait to try the "Napa Valley Blend" I came home with. This shop also sells lotions, body products, artisan chocolates and other bits of delight. I could tell that the owner is passionate about what she does and sharing it with others. The Olivet also just celebrated its first anniversary. Congrats, Olivet!

I am kind of…read moreshocked that a specialty shop like this exists in small town Indiana, but I'm extremely happy that it does. This is a shop that is focused and goes deep. The options for oils and vinaigrette are shocking. That's before you hit the wall of spices. All of these are available in volumes that allow you to buy as much as you need rather than just shelves of pre-packaged goods. Also, feel free to check out the fresh-baked, delicate desserts in the back cases. I finally found squid ink pasta, so I'm excited. You definitely won't be confusing this with a stop in the baking aisle of your local grocery store. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly! You have to check out The Olivet if you want to take your cooking to the next level.
