I decided to just spend the money at Buppa's instead of ferry fares. :)

So, did anyone go to the opening, and meet the old hippies? And get free ice cream??

Woo hoo! Spotted a B&J delivery truck down the road from our house yesterday, and today found the real deal at a cafe on Gamon Street in Seddon. Only 5 flavours so far, but I'm hopeful! :)

Yes, I did at Manly I even had photo's taken with them at their VW combie van , their Darlinghurst scoop store will open soon, it's only five minutes walk away from me.

I can already buy their ice cream at my local store in Darlinghurst, or in a few stores in Surry Hills.

The prices mentioned earlier in this thread are the recommended retail value, so most will be there.

Ben and Jerry's never did anything for me, really. However this weekend in Melbourne we got room service at our hotel and I got a little 175g container of Movenpicks Carmelita Ice cream. http://www.moevenpick-icecream.com/

OMFG. It was like the best sex you ever had... like quivering after shock sex. It was so good I bought ANOTHER TUB the next night. SEVEN DOLLARS PEOPLE FOR 175 grams and I WOULD DO IT AGAIN.

OMG.

I'm all hot and bothered just thinking about it.

YES! Isn't that amazing??? :lurve:
The owner, Harry D. is a very smart, progressive-minded young Asian, who also opened the Gloria Jean's in the CBD, and he's doing very well with it, the place is just packed!
