New Ice cream shop on east dulwich road


Calsug

Recommended Posts

Sorry if this place has already been mentioned but I went there for the first time today...


Well tried to but just missed it as they were closing, the owner though very kindly offered me a free sample to apologise and I have to say it was delicious! Far nicer and creamier than oddonos and the selection looked fantastic


Will certainly be going back during opening hours. Apparently they do ice cream in a brioche bun for breakfast which sounds amazing!

From what the owner was saying they are slowly extending the opening hours, seems like an odd strategy but that is how they are doing it! Was certainly open when I went there at 3pm today but don't think they are staying open very late at the moment.
Sue - no they don't! And without a website it's pretty hard to tell when they intend to be open in the first place- twice I have set off from home on a sunny afternoon specifically to get an ice cream from them(I only live 10 mins away ) and twice they have been shut - very lazy of me but makes me a lot less likely to pop down in the future... Which is a shame because I really enjoy their ice cream- delicious and great value.

I haven't even had the chance to try it yet!!!


But I won't be making a special trip down there again until they have regular and publicised opening hours - will just have to hope that they're open when I'm passing and in the mood for an ice cream :))

Seems very odd place - we went to get ice-cream based on recommendations on here, but they only have ice-cream in cardboard pots rather than cones (love a cone) and also don't accept cards, only cash.


Frustrates me when a business opens but isn't really geared up for customers?

I've been and the ice cream was delicious. But we also wanted it with a cone. There was also no price list and the lady behind the counter had to explain how it all worked. Whilst I was there I saw two customers walk in, look a bit confused and then walk out. I persevered and it was worth it but they do need to make it a bit easier for customers.
I agree. This place is a bit odd- tried twice to buy an ice cream. First time 3 staff were attending to one customer whilst I waited (and left), second time I was only allowed to buy 3 scoops. I wasn't allowed to have one or two scoops, or if I did I'd have to pay for the price of three. There is no price list and no menu of flavours.

Based on my experience, I'm really not sure what the confusion is.


On Sunday I was greeted by a very friendly and cheerful guy and girl. All the flavours were displayed Oddono's-style by their respective tubs. Those that were unfamiliar to me were explained with a smile, as was the pricing structure. I chose the smallest tub size which, as MissDumpling has previously posted, is currently priced at ?2.50. You can choose up to three different flavours for this size of tub. You can have one big scoop if you like. Or two smaller scoops. Or three little ones.


I thought it was excellent.

    • Good luck with this - it is getting harder than ever to do an infant observation, I did mine at a local nursery as I needed to observe a child from 9 months - 3years. Mine was weekly for 3 months, It is surprising what you can observe during that one hour. I continued to use my observational skills throughout my 21 year professional career, After I retired, I returned to University and trained as a Practice Educator and went on to have 5 students and encouraged them not just to listen but to observe their 'clients 'body languages/ environment/ relationships with others. I would urge parents/caregivers to participate - you will be surprised how much more you will understand about your child and their development,
    • Regardless of who 'owns' the bin- the organisation regularly comes to empty it and clear up the area. They were there today (Weds)

    • @Gingergossip In deed a bit of a joker, totally tongue in cheek, got me and others, well done (check their profile out).   But unfortunately there is a bit of Alf Garnett here, where Warren Mitchell in As Death as Do Part, would say the most outrageous and offensive things.  Effectively mocking and calling out some nasty right wing beliefs.  But sadly some with those beliefs thought he was being serious, As we can see on this thread.
