The End

And with that, we're done!

Everybody with much fuller stomachs!

And so, having officially tried the signature products from each and every ice cream and frozen yogurt store in the main part of town, I guess I'm qualified to give my recommendations. Our findings are:
  • Most unique flavor experience: Bent Spoon's unusual flavors and textures (esp. the sorbets) will give you something to think about. Runner up is Thomas Sweet's Blend-In, though some might find the texture off-putting.
  • Least unique flavor experience: Thomas Sweet's ice cream was pretty unremarkable, though still enjoyable. Twist and Fruity Yogurt have pretty similar taste.
  • Best ambience: Halo Pub's rustic feel is very charming, although the family-friendly atmosphere of Thomas Sweet was also pleasant. Between the frozen yogurt places, Fruity Yogurt was more cheery.
  • Best deal: Halo Pub's prices are pretty unbeatable. Fruity has a marginal edge over Twist in price per ounce.
But these are far from unanimous opinions. Each person in our group had different preferences, and even when our favorites lined up they were often for different reasons. Really, it all comes down to what YOU enjoy best, and what you might be in the mood for. And each shop has more than enough options within the store to make your head swim. 

Although I hope this blog was enjoyable to read and maybe helpful in providing an idea of what's out there, I encourage you to take a tour of your own--maybe not all in one day like we did, but to give each location a try at some point if you can. You don't know what lines up with you and your personality until you taste for yourself.
