The Surf Side Shakes shop opened in 2020 but has recently changed ice cream vendors. As you know I am focused on quality, quantity and quaffness so I prefer shops that make their own ice cream. This is an exception cause it is LEOPOLD’S from Savannah. One of my absolute favorite ice creams. Oh, wait, I need to be more professional if the GBBS so going to call.
This ice cream had a “clean flavor” with no disgusting aromas or colors, not too much air in the mix and an excellent tongue complexity. You may have noticed I minored in ice cream at MBOCCCA.
The shop was cute, but no indoor seating is a deduction, cost was on the high side but good selection and nice manager, who of course, came out specifically to wait on me. Four flavors were enjoyed but the best was the Peppermint cause that is one of my favorites.
I will award the shop 3.5 antlers.
The manager heard an almost famous Moose/ food critic / Ice Cream specialist, and possible judge on the Great British Baking Show was here - so she came to wait on me personally.
