Carvel Ice Cream Bakery/Blimpie Subs

I have to disclose up front that I am from Southern California--home of the best yogurt shops in the world--and that I don't quite understand the allure of Carvel on the East Coast. It's not ice cream. It's not frozen yogurt. It's not even soft serve. It's Carvel.

I got the classic vanilla on a cake cone dipped in chocolate, which started melting immediately and was the messiest thing ever. My mom got the traditional vanilla/rainbow sprinkles sundae. She and I thought they tasted good enough--nothing special. My stepdad and his mom would kill us for saying that. For the record, they enjoyed their sundaes very much. The girls behind the counter were really sweet, and we liked that the place was open late.

This particular location is under construction. Be advised that you might have a bit of trouble locating it, due to the scaffolding and tarps out front. It shares a suite with Blimpie Subs.
