Absolute favorite ice cream place in the East Bay. They have so many fun flavors, like banana oreo, oolong mochi, thai tea, and ube, and every single flavor we have tried has been delicious. It is very underhyped and not busy like some other spots, and I think they’re better 😍

Interesting and creative flavors that are TASTY, like banana oreo. They have seasonal flavors too, like chrysanthemum sorbet 😋. Also a very solid smash burger and fried chicken sandwich!

Near Old Oakland is this brightly painted ice cream and treats shop that sells made to order ice cream cookie sandwiches. You can also get the ice cream without the cookies.
Try a scoop of the ube (taro or purple yam) and black sesame ice cream. Both may be the best of those flavors I’ve ever had. The ube is aromatic - like the taro bubble tea drinks from boba shops. And the black sesame tastes toasty and nutty.
Although indoor dining is not available, they have a few tables and chairs outside.
I love learning this is an Asian owned business - seems right since many of their flavors use Asian ingredients. Their non dairy sherbet has calamansi (A lemon/lime fruit from the Philippines)

Frequently visit this place and love their unique flavors... we normally get the strawberry and cream and ube. this time, we options for one of their seasonal flavors and it was alright. would've chosen something different had we gotten the chance to sample. Given that restrictions are loosening, we felt they should allow people to sample first so they can know which flavors they'd want without taking a risk!

You should never feel bad about sampling ice cream flavors if you end up buying some!!
We walked in on a Saturday evening right after the New Years, and there were a few groups and a short line. I tried 6-8 flavors and the cashier was nice about it. My favorites were Jasmine Milk Tea and Ube. $0.25 extra for 2 flavors in a single scoop

The burgers. Come for the burgers.
They have the perfect, no frills, classic smash burger. This isn't a burger with artisanal kale or some other over engineered topping that ruins the idea of a burger. It's Delicious with its simplicity. Seriously, just come get the burger.

Hadn't been since the name change but happy to report the flavors are all still there and it is still yummy. Just a little disappointed at the serving size -- both in how small mine was but mostly in comparison to what others got.
