Here in Gloucester there’s an amazing ice cream shop called Short Lane. They make their own ice cream so I guess it could be considered a little creamery. Anyway, this place has the most delicious ice cream. Their claim to fame, however, is their unusual flavors. They have all the yummy regulars like vanilla, chocolate, cookies and cream, strawberry, but they will also come up with some really original stuff. We obviously frequent the place. They have different flavors everyday. Usually a variety of about 40 kinds of ice cream. Some of the interesting flavors they’ve had are: Wasabi, Old Bay, Captain crunch cereal, honey lavender, avacado, strawberries and goat cheese, black licorice, mayonnaise, cotton candy, hazelnut gelato, Earl Grey, Ginger Cream, Dill pickle… And on and on and on. They don’t seem to be afraid to make any flavor at all! I actually sampled the Old Bay yesterday and it was surprisingly pretty darn good.
