HAMDEN - Son Cameron and I headed to Hamden to find a frozen treat on Sunday, which just happened to be National Ice Cream Day.
After all we had to celebrate ice cream!
We stopped at Cherry on Top Ice Cream Shop at 1654 Whitney Ave. in the Spring Glen section of town. The friendly server told us the shop opened in June of 2012.
Coincidentally the shop also serves Buck's Ice Cream, which I and my ice cream compadres have now enjoyed at several locations, most recently last week at Dave & Dave's in Shelton.
Cameron ordered a medium-sized sundae with two scoops of cookies 'n cream ice cream and a scoop of peanut butter fudge ice cream, Nutella (hazelnut chocolate spread), walnuts and whipped cream.
His reaction? "It was really good!"
I got a waffle cone with a scoop of birthday cake burst ice cream topped with a scoop of rich chocolate ice cream. I daresay it was a delicious combo.
The ice cream parlor has a few seats inside but since Sunday was not too hot we decided to sit at one of the tables out on the sidewalk to enjoy our treat.
The afternoon was quiet and there didn't even seem to be much traffic on normally busy Whitney Avenue.
Would we go back? Absolutely. I recommend you give it a try!
