Other than that I would absolutely recommend trying out Kurimu!

The inside is clean and open with a lot of natural light. Plenty of toppings to choose from, including fresh fruits and my favorite nonpareils, which I don't see often so they are a welcomed splurge/treat. The owner, Kwan, is very friendly, generous, and supportive of local community events and programs that encourage children and youth to succeed. And yes, the super cute spoons in several colors are reusable, so I often pack them in my work lunch box for yogurt or oatmeal. Menchies has cakes too and a community board to share about local events.

The location is perfect during the warmer season because you can wake outside in a circle by a lake in the middle and see ducks too.

It's been a long time since I've been to an Oberweis. My dad was soo excited he volunteered to…read moredrive us there so he could have some, too. Place was very clean and I loved the oberweis themed stuffs they had around. I ended up getting a scoop of the Sweet Lemon Blackberry, which was soo refreshing and tasty! I could taste both lemon and blackberry without one overpowering the other. My guy got the Wildberry Chocolate Chunk. It was good, but the berry flavor wasn't very strong. My dad got a simple Vanilla Malt and was happy with it. If you go simple, the price isn't terrible. But with the cost of each topping, it can add up fast so you have to make sure you're paying attention. The ice cream is delicious and the texture is beyond great. I really wish it wasn't this expensive for such a small scoop. The high price is the only downside for me.

One day, while searching for the restaurants with the best dessert options afterwards -- I became…read morefrustrated at how many places had a limited menu of choices and treated dessert like an afterthought. Since my main goal was to have a great dessert, I reversed my thought process and started looking for the best dessert restaurants that happened to be near excellent savory food as well. This led me to discovering Melt N Dip. While most dessert spots have a display case of locally bought bakery items, or a small set of options made in-house, Melt N Dip goes overboard with a huge selection of crepes, cookies, waffles, cake, gelato, milkshakes, fresh fruit, cheesecake, and more! This is incredible for someone like me who gets easily tired of monotony, since I can make many visits here and try something new each time with friends. The restaurant is on a great spot, close to the main road but far away from the H-Mart to avoid cross traffic. There's plenty of parking, and the restaurant itself is large, with very comfortable seating, and social media worthy decor. Service is quick and friendly, and prices may look a little high -- but once you see the size of the product and the quality of ingredients used, and the freshness of the fruit -- you'll realize that the value provided here is much better than similar items that you may get elsewhere. On this trip, I was able to try the Brownies Magic and Melt N Dip waffle. Both were excellent in their own way. The brownie was super soft and decadent, full of chocolate flavor. The gelato was smooth, creamy, flavorful and very refined. The fresh strawberries helped to tame down the overall sweetness of the dish, which was anchored by a base of delicious milk chocolate. The milk, dark, and white chocolate on top helped to tie everything together with a great burst of flavor and nice consistency. The waffle was maybe even the bigger surprise - as this came on a huge plate with lots of fresh pineapple, bananas, strawberries, and kiwi. One of my favorite things to do when on a cruise boat is to have fresh fruit with waffles, and this was an elevated version of that experience. Though the waffle wasn't really crisp, it accomplished exactly what it needed to by holding a generous amount of milk, dark, and while chocolate to pair with the fresh fruit. This was a phenomenal combination that has made me question if I'll ever look at similar options at a fondue spot or fancy brunch the same again. Overall, phenomenal desserts at a reasonable price. The fresh fruit and chocolate quality really shines and I have full confidence that everything else they serve here will match the same level of quality. This is a must return spot for me that is worth a special trip whenever I'm craving quality, consistency, and an impressive dessert experience.

The food definitely stands out in terms of quality. It is most comparable to places like Canes , with the chicken/fries/toast combo. However they excel in comparison with their dirty sodas and other food offerings. The fries, cheese curds and Texas toast are all delicious snack options. Everything comes out hot and cooked to order. The portions are a good size and it all tastes fresh. The dirty sodas were a fun thing to try out. During my visits, I tried the "Toasty Marshmallow" (Mr Pibb) and the "Float On" (Barqs) . Both are sweet combinations and are fun treats. There's a lot here that makes them stand out from most fast-casual places and overall provide a quality dining experience.

In a category that I feel is saturated with lots of restaurants, and becoming increasingly…read moresaturated -- Minnie Bird stands out for me both in terms of choice and quality. Shops that offer chicken tenders, chicken sandwiches, fries, and similar options have become very commonplace in this area of the Chicago suburbs. Even without considering the quality of food, there's a few features that make this a hit for me. The dining room is fun, yet appropriate. The value here is great both in terms of quantity of food, and overall pricing. The ice cream that changes monthly provides a fun way to customize a periodic visit. While I'm not crazy about the texture and flavor of it, it's still an enjoyable dessert -- particularly on a warm day. The sides such as fried cheese curds and spicy fries are different. The dirty soda options also provide a ton of possibilities for social media posts and different flavor options on each visit. Service is not too slow for how busy the restaurant is, and parking isn't too difficult. The food is very good here, both in terms of flavor and texture -- and generously portioned as well. The tenders rival the best versions I've had from other dedicated chicken restaurants. Crispy with tender chicken that stands well on its own without sauces, but at the same time has a heightened experience with the quality sauces, which each have a distinct flavor profile. I also enjoyed the cole slaw and texas toast considerably, and especially the fries which were crisp and matched very well with the sauces. The same level of food quality is also present in their sandwiches and wraps, which mix the same quality components together for a delicious product.

Fortunately Amorino Gelato is one of the better ones that I've run across. The decor here definitely looks much more elegant than the average frozen treat restaurant, with the different gelatos displayed in clean looking cases and premium machines visible making drinks. The menus and signage is all very elegant looking -- though the print on them is small enough it can be difficult to read at times. I really appreciate how the overall restaurant is colorful with food and signage, but is elegant rather than tacky. I do wish there was a bit more seating here, as the business gets rather busy but you may have to compete for somewhere to sit and enjoy your treat. The food unsurprisingly is very good. The gelato flavors are distinct with clean and fairly bold flavors made with good quality ingredients. I also tried the waffle here which was fairly light, crisp, and enjoyable. They are very generous with samples here and I enjoyed every flavor that I tried. Prices are fairly reasonable compared to similar establishments. Overall, worth a visit if you need a sweet treat within Woodfield Mall, particularly if you're looking for gelato in a rose shape in a cone.

It is a small coffee / dessert spot in Mitsuwa and always busy. When there is a line in front, follow the crowd. You know there is something good in there. The wait is always worth it! Yesterday, my brother and I ordered 2 Vietnamese coffees. My brother and I loved our Vietnamese coffees and tasted excellent. The sweet level was perfect. I enjoy mixing the chicory coffee and condensed milk before drinking it. When I get that light brown color during mixing I know that is the right time to drink the coffee. Today, I also ordered a Vietnamese coffee and it tasted excellent. Thank you Releaf!
