In 1984, President Reagan declared July as National Ice Cream Month. Here are my picks for the best places in Manhattan to celebrate all year long:
Emack & Bolio’s: Emack & Bolio’s brings a little piece of Boston to New York City. E&B’s fun rock ‘n roll vibe traces back to its roots when it was founded in the 70s by Bob Rook, a music lawyer who opened his first location as a place for musicians to go to after their shows. The shop serves premium ice cream, yogurt, smoothies, hand-made chocolates, microbrewed sodas, and hand roasted coffee. Emack & Bolio’s makes 100+ flavors each year, and the list of outrageous flavors never disappoints! Chocoholics will love the “Serious Chocolate Addiction,” chocolate mousse ice cream with fudge chunks and chocolate flakes mixed in.
