10 Jeni's Flavors you Don't Wanna Miss

A take on ten flavors of Jenis, no it did not take us long to make this list.. case in point, Jenis ice cream is fabulous.

10 mouth watering flavors:

(Buttery Popcorn to the left, and Caramel Almond to the right)

Buttery Popcorn
In lamest terms, the best. Seriously. I loved this flavor. I'm not going to say I'm a huge popcorn person, but this definitely put a smile on my face. The ice cream was smooth, yet tasted exactly like kettle corn.

Caramel Almond
I loved the pieces of almond in this flavor. The ice cream itself was okay, really really sweet which is always good.


Ultramarine Blue Buttermilk
Extremely tangy and extremely fruity this flavor of Jenis will not disappoint your taste buds. In fact it's like an explosion of blue, or purple, because it was purple ice cream!


Vanilla Bean
Just as you expect, this flavor is the perfect pairing when you cannot decide from all of the other wonderful flavors, or to tame down another flavor, it was the bees knees!

(Vanilla bean to the left, Ultramarine to the right)




Intelligentsia Black Cat Espresso
Definitely one of my favorites that I have tried from Jenis so far. Such a great coffee flavor. It almost seemed as if there may be actual coffee grounds throughout the ice cream. Don't miss out on this eye opener.

Middle West Whiskey and Pecans
If you love whiskey, or pecans this one may be just for you. Be aware that this ice cream has a strong whiskey flavor. (you won't get drunk from this if that's what you're thinking) Served with large chunks of pecan, this could be a crowd favorite for those who love their ice cream on the wild side.

Brown Butter Almond Brittle
This flavor was simply sweet. I was going to try the gooey butter cake, but they were all out! The honey butter is a sibling of the gooey butter cake I was told, so I went with it. It also was a ice cream that contained bits of nuts and a great crunch from the sweet bits of brittle.

(In front Espresso, to the left Whiskey, and the right Brown Butter)

Atlantic Beach Pie
This flavor was pretty decent, if you're a key lime/lemon pie person. It has the tanginess of citrus and what seemed to be small chunks of pie crust which was a good addition to this ice cream recipe. They pretty much nailed it as it was named!

(In front Sweet Cream, to the left Churro, and Atlantic to the right)

Sweet Cream Biscuits and Peach Jam
This one had a strong taste of cream and a strong tanginess as well. The part of this ice cream I could taste the least was the peach but it wasn't a big disappointment either.

Churro
Another favorite, this ice cream was bursting with sweet cinnamon flavor. The sweetness wasn't too much to handle either. You could taste the cinnamon more than a bunch of sugar which was well appreciated. You can never go wrong with a regular Churro, so this was a very clever ice cream flavor for Jeni's to present with their big selection of signature flavors.




We hope you'll stop in at Jenis and try more of their wonderful flavors! Comment your favorite, or tell us about some you have tried!

Thanks for reading, your's truly,
Tasty

Roosters, it's an Ohio thing!

We are so proud to be from Ohio for so many reasons, and Roosters being one of them!  Roosters is a restaurant that only 'Ohioans' or Ohio visitors know about. It's not a five star fancy schmansy restaurant, just a tasty and fun place to eat at on a weekend or after a long days work. The famous slogan really speaks for itself "A fun, casual, joint", but it doesn't happen to mention the delicious food they have available!  We are regular Rooster customers, we usually go a couple of times a month. We usually stick with our favorites from the menu, but you really can't go wrong with anything they have to offer. Whether it's the loaded nachos, a burger, or their tender boneless wings dipped in your choice of TOP OF THE LINE wing sauce, you wont be disappointed. Most of the time we go with the boneless wings drenched in tangy sweet Thai chili sauce. The quality of the meat is unbeatable, but the big kicker for us is the sauce. The sweet

Amorino has the Gelato

  Oh gelato, you make me smile, especially in the form of a beautiful rose. Yes, you read that correctly, gelato in the shape of a rose. You can find this so called rose shaped gelato at Amarino in Chicago. After hearing about this place, I HAD to add it to our itinerary while we were back in the Windy City. Amarino is downtown, and we didn’t have that much trouble finding parking. We went later in the afternoon; I would say around 5 p.m. and found Amarino to be especially empty. When you enter the double sliding doors (cool touch) you will be right in front of their gelato selections. They have a wide selection. We came for the rose, but you are able to get a simple bowl instead as well.  When finally deciding what flavors we wanted we ended up with Pistachio, cookie butter, and chocolate. The flavors went very well together. We watched in awe as the server sculpted a beautiful rose master piece in front of us. It turned out so pretty!

Fatso's.. hopefully Not-so Last Stand

Fatso’s Last Stand is a "somewhat" fast food restaurant that can also be found on the outskirts of Chicago. When it comes to hot-dogs, Chicago is the place you want to be. For those who may not know, the traditional Chicago dog includes an all-beef frank placed on a poppy seed bun, with a lot of toppings such as, white onions, bright green sweet pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices, pickled peppers, and lastly yellow mustard. Out of the many, many, places in Chicago you can find a great hot dog we wound up at Fatso’s. Not only does Fatso’s offer great hot-dogs, they have their own spin on hamburgers. The burger is famously named “The Fatso Burger” and we couldn’t leave without trying both. When ordering you’ll also notice that all of their hot-dogs are served Chicago style, but you can add or remove all the toppings that you would like. Fatso’s has a few different types of hot-dogs to pick from in terms of the meat and style
