    One of Birmingham's only true creameries, where they're making all the ice cream in house. I am a…read moreself proclaimed Ice Cream Snob, but Big Spoon checks all my boxes. Unique flavors, classic flavors, the smell of fresh waffle cones inside. Big Spoon does a ton of business, as they should. The location here in Avondale is great, but not super walkable from any really good restaurants. I would love to see them open another spot on 2nd Ave. I had the strawberry tres leches in a waffle cone and it was delicious. I appreciate the care and craft that went into making sure every bit down to the bottom of the cone had ice cream in it. 10/10.

    The Sweet and the Absurd: A Birmingham Creamery's Baffling Economics…read moreTo step into Big Spoon Creamery in Birmingham is to subject oneself to a masterclass in both artisanal delight and bureaucratic absurdity. On my visits--a pilgrimage undertaken reliably every month and a half--the front-line staff have never been anything short of exemplary. They are the cheerful stewards of a deeply baffling system, executing their duties with a warmth that almost distracts you from the institutional quirks around them. I say "institutional" because the management themselves are entirely phantom. They are never seen on the floor. Perhaps this is a calculated evasion; if they were ever present, they would surely have to field a relentless, exasperated inquisition regarding the tragic and ongoing absence of their finest creation: the "Magic City." Why an ice cream parlor would willingly suppress its undisputed masterpiece remains an enduring mystery. Even if the economics of its ingredients demanded a premium surcharge, "Magic City" ought to be enshrined as an immovable staple on the menu. Instead, the menu is a restless, ever-shifting carousel. I concede that a relentless churn of novelty is a virtue to a certain type of customer, but the soul of a great neighborhood institution relies on the comforting reliability of a few anchor flavors. At Big Spoon, just as you develop an affection for a flavor, it vanishes into the ether. Then, we must examine the rewards program, an endeavor so poorly conceived it borders on the avant-garde. The mathematics are punishingly flat: one point per order, regardless of whether the patron spends a single dollar or one hundred. The rational response to such a broken incentive structure is, naturally, to weaponize the system. To extract any genuine value, the savvy customer is forced into a theatrical display of micro-transactions, paying for each scoop separately. It is a loophole that needlessly punishes the very staff who make the establishment shine, forcing them to run the register three or four times for a single family's dessert. Finally, there is the creamery's bizarre pricing taxonomy. A close study of the board reveals an accidental arbitrage opportunity: the customer is objectively better off purchasing two distinct pints of ice cream and two empty waffle cones to assemble on their own time, rather than engaging in the straightforward, intended transaction of ordering ice cream scooped directly into a cone. Whoever is pulling the levers behind the curtain at Big Spoon clearly fancies themselves a clever operator, disrupting the traditional ice cream parlor model with dynamic menus and gamified loyalty. But in their pursuit of perpetual novelty and labyrinthine economics, they have embodied the old proverb perfectly: they are entirely too clever by half.

    Without a doubt, Cookie Fix makes the best cookies in Alabama! What once started as a singular shop…read morein Homewood has now expanded to multiple locations. They have monthly and daily specials as well as fun seasonal flavors! They always offer their classics but I definitely appreciate a rotating, diverse variety of flavors. The cookies themselves are dense, thick, and gooey on the inside- always baked to perfection! Cookies are handmade and always fresh. I think the prices are very reasonable, as the cookies are high-quality. I've tried so many different cookies but today I had the pleasure of trying the "Peanut Butter Bb Over the Top", which is easily one of the best cookies I've ever had. Also, they often have boxes of day-old dozens (no telling what's inside until you take it home though) but in no way can you tell they're a day old.

    The Yelp blog's "Top 100 chocolate chip cookies to dip your milk into" post introduced me to Cookie…read moreFix. That list mentioned their location in Homewood, but I was able to swing by the Brock's Gap Hoover outpost. Unfortunately the selections were on the scant side; they had run out of some options. I wanted a cookie with dark chocolate but ended up purchasing the semi-sweet chocolate chip ($3.02 with tax). To be fair, it was about an hour to closing time. But later I went on Cookie Fix's website and reviewed the calendar, and Sundays have the fewest number of cookie options (9 versus 13 on Wednesday for example. At any rate, the cookie was very pleasing, with a unique ice cream scoop shape, a reasonable amount of chocolate, a soft middle, and noticeable sea salt. I approve! The young woman helping me was very polite and helpful; she might've been a high school student. I spotted a fridge stocked with cookie dough if you want to bake at home. And there's no seating inside but a couple of benches and tables with chairs right outside. Since this Cookie Fix is located in a shopping center, parking was unproblematic. There are also numerous restaurants and shops around for before or after getting your Cookie Fix!
