Gifford's

[fabrisse]

When I was a kid, we used to go to "Mister Gifford's" for ice cream after church on Sunday.

There was no Mister in the name, but just as we called the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials "Mr. Lincoln's House" and "Mister Jefferson's House" respectively, our ice cream shop got an honorific.

I don't know if they're using the original recipes. The current iteration of Gifford's is not owned by the family, but the Swiss Chocolate sauce still has a velvety texture and the everything tastes right.

It probably wasn't the best thing for my diet, but I'm glad I hit Gifford's for dinner tonight.

Yum! It's so nice when old restaurants still keep the recipes. Very cool. :)
