On a Mission…
On the recommendation of Melanie McKenna, a friend from my home town, we checked out Mitchell’s Ice Cream with our good friend Greg Watkins-Colwell. Mitchell’s is in the Mission neighborhood and quite the busy place for a cool Thursday evening.
Mitchels has been around since 1953 and a legendary place. They make all their ice cream on site and have some incredible flavors that we have never heard of but we all had to try “Ube” which is purple yam from the Philippines before we made our final selections. They offer traditional cones, cups, sundaes, ice cream sandwiches and cakes. And pints and gallons of their milky delights!
Our buddy Greg had two scoops of avocado and halo-halo in a cup while Mighty Mo had a sundae with Sticky Monkey ice cream. Since this was dinner I had an Avocado milkshake that was creamy and tasty to the last drop! No complaints from this group but it was a bit chilly standing on the sidewalk in the shade.
If you’re on a mission looking for ice cream, head no further than Mitchell’s in the Mission district. You won’t be disappointed, just bring your imagination and enjoy their creativity.
