    This is one of the best milkshakes I've ever had in my life. The two girls working there were super nice too. I was thinking about getting a second one right after I finished the first one but I'm trying to get in shape for Halloween.

    Peanut butter and cookies, almond milk style!

    It's Ben & Jerry's! I fell in love with Chunky Monkey in 1989. Used to eat a pint all in a go. I'd wear a single ski glove to hold the pint so that it wouldn't melt as I worked my way through it. But that's TMI and I digress. So I might have been smack in the middle of taking this place for granted, but I went vegan 16 years ago and was forced to patiently wait for them to catch on. Patience rewarded, as I am now delighted by all four non-dairy flavors. They had one non-dairy flavor on the menu when I showed up today, peanut butter and cookies, so I was able to walk in and get a cone like it was no big thang. Same delicious flavor I enjoyed in the pint at home. The space is nice and service is prompt. So now you can go to Berben & Wolff's for a sandwich, stroll over to Stack's for an espresso and then end up at Ben & Jerry's for a cone. Three vegan delights on one street. What is this place, little Portland? Whatever. I'm enjoying it.

    Dis is my friends Ruth Bader Ginspug and me waiting for ice screams outsides.

    Ordered for delivery to the hotel I was staying at. The ice-cream was great, but they didn't give us spoons which was super annoying.

    They finally moved this place off Lark Street and the new location is much nicer although a bit smaller.

    For decades I've driven past Kurver Kreme on Central Avenue in Colonie without stopping. It's…read morealways peaked my interest but I always made excuses. On a diet. In a hurry. Always something. The other night, the weather was warm. My friend and I were out for a drive. We pulled into Kurver Kreme. What a nice experience! The stand is well lit. There were dozens of vehicles in the large parking lot. It looked like a tailgate. Some customers were sitting in the back of their hatchbacks taking in the scene and enjoying the warm weather. There were no lines. Many customers were just hanging out after finishing their ice creams. Some were lost in conversation. Others were busy "people watching" as a wide variety of vehicles continued to pull into the parking lot. The stand looks to be mid-century and appropriately old R&B music and 60s Rock classics blared from the speaker system. Most of the ice cream is soft serve. I ordered a small chocolate in a cup. It was good. My friend ordered a pomegranate and mango Dole whip twist, which is sort of like sherbet. It was both pretty and tasty. Elaina was our server. She was friendly and helpful. She filled our orders quickly. We had a fun time. I'm glad we stopped.

A small cone or dish is 3 scoops, currently at $5.25, tax included. It's cash only, but there's an ATM several feet to the right of the ordering counter. I got 2 scoops of peanut butter ice cream topped with a scoop of vanilla. The vanilla had some very small ice crystals in it but was otherwise fine. I really love their peanut butter ice cream. It's creamy with the peanut butter flavor but not overwhelming. The cone does seem to be a little small for all that ice cream, so don't dilly-dally too much eating it in warm weather. Since some other parlors near me have closed, Scoups has become by default the closest ice cream spot to me that makes their own hard ice cream. This is not a bad thing. It's also not bad that it's not too far away from Wolf Road, and it becomes a convenient spot for dessert after dinner nearby.

There are picnic tables available on the property in front of a wooden fence where you can often see a few cows grazing nearby. Talk about farm to market! Not only is the homemade ice cream top quality, it is delicious. In addition, they serve soft vanilla and soft chocolate, dole whip, homemade Italian Ice, and Frogurt. The numerous flavors of ice cream are rich and bold. They are described well on the menu. Portions are generous so you may want to size down. I like a "small" cone of the Toffee Heath Bar Crunch. Staff is friendly and efficient no matter how long the line is at the window.

But I did finally stop by for some of the famous desserts/ ice cream. Service was great. The young man at the service window made a number of very helpful suggestions, especially after I mentioned that I've begun to show a bit of dairy sensitivity if I have ice cream late at night. So I tried the nondairy Dole pineapple whip in a cup. It was delicious. My friend had a double scoop of chocolate ice cream in a waffle cone. That was delicious, too. I tried some. There were many customers. Since Guptill's is widely considered a Capital Region institution, I'm slightly embarrassed that I haven't visited before. The ice cream stand is large and clean. The staff is young and courteous. I can't explain why I haven't been to the rink yet since I skate pretty well. Perhaps I've just been busy. Still, this was a good start. Hopefully, I will get around to doing some roller skating in the coming weeks. It might be a good way to beat the heat since Guptill's is air conditioned during the summer.
