Big John Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 There is one nearby, a little bit pricey, but you have more choices on what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted January 22, 2006 Author Share Posted January 22, 2006 we're going local to a place called Hunan Coventry. Best Chinese in the city. Aside from PF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twiley Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 It's good stuff. We do some work for them locally so my agency gets a ton of free ice cream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deacon Bill Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Cold Stone is great...other than the prices. They were handing out free samples of wasabi flavored ice cream the other day. It was actually quite good! I wouldn't want to eat a bowl of it...but it was good if you like hot/spicy food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love ice cream but can't handle Cold Stone. Wiley...I'd drive right by the CS and hit Ted Drewe's every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spain Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 There are several Ice Cream places around here who have the same sort of Ice Cream and theme as Cold Stone. Marble Slab and Maggie Moos come to mind. I actually like Marble Slab's ice cream better, but my kids always want to go to CS... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have Baskin Robbins-- just as satisfying and less calories for those who need to watch our weight. Cake batter is mightly tasty though...

darin3 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Coldstone, great ice cream... great franchise for those of you looking to open your own business. I think I gave a dissertation on them here last year. I am a simpleton so I get straight-up chocolate with peanut butter... add some chocolate chips or brownie pieces if I'm feelin' saucy.

Dirty Sanchez Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Coldstone, great ice cream... great franchise for those of you looking to open your own business. 1282877[/snapback] It's all about the location. My brother opened up 4 stores in the Denver area a few years ago. Other than one store, they don't do very good business and they are struggling right now. I guess high priced ice cream in a cold climate isn't the best combonation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
