If you know me, you know I'm ALWAYS open to try something NEW!!!…read more And Bambu fit the bill for THE NEW. Stopped in because I saw the sign high up in the air, way to go advertising team. Walking in I was greeted with fresh smells & warm smiles. This was a new place for me, so of course, I am taking in all the sights, from the GET CHE MIND RIGHT backdrop, to the wall menus, to the vending machines & all the other signage that provide helpful suggestions. I was shocked to learn of drinks made with kidney beans was on the menu. The kidney beans are said to be sweet. I promised to try it, as it's quite hard to fathom kidney beans would be sweet. That will be my drink of choice next time. But this time, I tried a more fruity drink and It was quite pleasing to me. There was ice cream at the very top and the cashier suggested that I hurry and eat that before it melted I did what she said, and I had two treats in one drink. The ice cream and then the gummy's at the very bottom. It was like eating gummy bears or gummy worms with a dessert drink. Every mouthful was chewy and flavorful. To be noted, there are non-dairy options as well. Don't get scared. So many items to choose from, dessert drinks & banh-mi sandwiches, mango this, kidney beans that... with so many items on the menu that just means I have to return and try more of the concoctions. Shared parking lot. But it doesn't look like most people come and stay alone while. Although there are tables inside where you can sit and maybe do some computer work or read a book the average Joe picks up their drink and goes their way.

I also brought home slices of the best Tres' Leche' cake I've ever had! The churros were fresh & you can order different dipping sauces. Loved the cinnamon sugar on the crisp outsides. I didn't try the filled ones but they sounded interesting. Excellent customer service in English & in Spanish! Safe Outside seating & convenient parking. Located at the entrance of Lafreniere Park right off of Veterans. I'm really glad I tried this charming place.

It melted in my mouth and it was Lukewarm (delivered) so I can imagine how explosive the taste will be when I visit again tomorrow lol it's now my favorite treat. Yup I take it over the famous Beignets (which are yum yum spoken by a "self professed junk foodie". Guess it depends on my craving but this Cookie was amazing. Two of my favorites combined (Croissant + Chocolate Chip Cookie) was very well done. A big hit. I absolutely recommend. Not sure price point since mine inflated from Uber BUT still recommend!!! A nice personal touch too with a personal thank you. Gold star for this establishment!!!

Most recently I had their offerings at Fried Chicken Fest - 10000/10. The crookie and clucker bar (like a snickers bar on steroids) should become staples but you can't go wrong with their cookies. The owners are incredibly kind too. An overall fantastic operation!

There's a few outlets up on the walls by seating area. Free parking lot around the store because it's in a plaza. There's 5 tables with a bunch of colorful chairs around. Got the Cracker Jack affogato sundae. It wasn't my style though, strong caramel flavors with some crunch from the caramel popcorn and peanuts. The espresso and ice cream was refreshing together though (good combo). I think I'd rather try the smores but that's prob bc I'm a more chocolate and crunch person.

I think she mentioned something else but I don't remember the extra either. What I do remember is it was really good. My go to snowball anywhere is usually green apple but I'm glad I tried this one. I'd get it again. I noticed something about most of the snowball places around...they all use the snow wizard ice machine. But the crazy thing is, all of their ice isn't the same. This place figured ice out!! SO SOFT! Only downside and it's not their fault, it's in a rather busy strip so if you can't find parking out front...Beware McDonald's parking across the street. They tow as if they need all those parking spaces...I don't think I've ever seen a full McDonald's parking lot in life. Lol Anyway, 10/10 and cool points for entertaining my little chatterbox baby. I'll be back to try the Matcha!!

I love matcha and I've found a lot of places' matcha are too thin or not flavored enough. The matchas I've had at Nectar+Ice (banana bread & baklava) are so creamy and delicious! They also have snoballs, lattes and affogato so everyone can enjoy them. The owner was very helpful and also let me sample the weekly soft serve special which was also yummy. The only reason it's not a perfect 10 is the small space (can get a bit crowded during a rush) and its hours are only from Wed-Sat.

I really enjoyed my experience at this desert shop! I had the Oreo ice cream and it was delicious!…read moreThey have so many different desert menu items to choose from that I was trying to pick my next item while I was eating my first option. They had so many fun, different ice cream flavors like trix! The line was not too bad. You order and they give you a ticket to pay for your items in a separate line. They have your desert ready before you pay so you're not waiting on it so I appreciate the quickness. There's a few tables in there to sit if you'd like to sit inside.

First, one of the employees gave my young child an attitude, which was completely unnecessary. Then, instead of politely handing us our ice cream , he tossed the cup onto the counter. It was rude and unprofessional. Customer service matters just as much as the food. A smile and a little kindness go a long way, especially when interacting with families. Based on this experience, we won't be returning. I hope management addresses the customer service, because one employee can completely change the atmosphere of an otherwise great business.

This family-owned business has been a New Orleans institution since 1905. In fact, its name is…read morestill imprinted in the sidewalk tiles of its former location at 617 Ursulines. The establishment began as an ice cream parlor selling handmade gelato but has since expanded to include pastries, desserts, espresso, cappuccinos, & lattes. The shop embodies the old-world charm of Sicily, and everything is authentically produced in small batches from high-quality local ingredients. The first gelato flavor that founder Angelo Brocato first produced & sold was Torroncino - a vanilla-based gelato with cinnamon & ground almonds. It's still served in their shop today. Locals love their handmade gelato, Italian ices, & desserts - as do I. My favs are the cannoli and signature Italian pastries. I'm also a big fan of the Spumoni, which is served in slices (as it should be). Sadly, Angelo Brocato III passed on July 22nd at the age of 85. His burial was private but the locals gathered for a big celebration to honor his life and the joy he brought to them over the years.
