“ The strawberry sundae was really good. The vanilla ice cream tasted like old fashion ice cream, and the strawberries were sweet. The lady that took my order went above and beyond to make the sundaes. I went at closing time, and they had turned the ice cream machine off. But that didnt stop her from making my sundae! I will go back. ”
