My Favorite Ice Cream

When my family goes out to dinner, we are very critical of the food we eat. If our meal is not up to par, we go out for ice cream to make up from it. We have a few favorites around the Boston and its suburbs, and most of them. J.P. Licks is always a good option, and Bedford Farms is amazing if you're willing to really pig out on ice cream, but my absolute favorite ice cream place is Christina's.

This Saturday, my parents and I went out to dinner at a Chinese food place that my mom was recommended. To say the least, it was pretty awful. So, as we payed the check, we made plans to go out for ice cream. Being in Cambridge, Christina's is usually not an option. However, my mom felt really bad having chosen a bad restaurant for dinner, so she offered to drive and I once again got to have my favorite ice cream.

Christina's is a little ice cream place in Inman Square in Cambridge. On the right side of the two shop windows is Christina's Homemade Ice Cream, but on the left is Christina's Spice & Specialty Food. Christina's makes some it's ice cream flavors using spices and ingredients from its partner store one shop down. This results in the most amazing cinnamon ice cream I have ever tasted. The cinnamon tastes amazing, and the ice cream doesn't taste super fatty. I've never even tasted another flavor on the menu because I can't risk giving up my cinnamon ice cream for a lesser flavor (although my mom raves about the coffee flavors).

Anyway, I highly recommend Christina's to anyone looking for some really great ice cream.

  3. I love ice cream as well! Your family reminds me of mine because we always get ice cream opposed to other foods if we are still hungry. I want to try this place! Just the thought of homemade ice cream with real spices seems so good! I think you did a good job describing your family dynamic and the importance of ice cream!
