One side of Twist look like an American Diner, with the display of different coloured ice creams. The other side, which is the seating area has a Kenyan look with beiges and brown as it's colour scheme. We ordered a cassava dish, which had a brown sweet kinda of taste with red and green peppers, this dish was tasty plus we ordered cassava chips which was also tasty and had the same sauce as the cassava dish. We ordered their desserts which they are known for, my friend said that the food snacks are new thing they have introduced. I ordered their Apple crumble ice cream on a crepe, unfornataly this dessert was not great because the crepe was more like a pancake and the quality of the apple crumble was poor. The prices are reasonable, my friend felt the food snack prices were too much for what they were offering...it was around £6. After we paid, Twist managed to redeem themselves because their Nutella ice cream which we were allowed to taste before we tried, was absolutely A-MA-ZING!!! I has to buy a scoop! The manager also said to me a lot of their customer like the their crepes in a pancake style so when I come here next time I should just tell them I would like it thin. Twist is In North Harrow, the area itself is nothing to write home about but for the sake of some delicious ice cream I can see myself attending Twist again.

Stepped in here for a quick dessert with the hubby…read more Service was great. We had the strawberry and nutella waffle. It was tasty and the latte and the mocha we ordered were great as well. It was just a bit odd that the drinks came seperately and took a bit of time in between. To be fair; it was a bit busy and the girls were running around. So kudos to them. Also the fact that everything seems to be eggless! which is great! Anyway a good quick go to. Would I crave it.. not necessarily but it does the job.

I can't say that isn't true the majority of the time! I like Shaketastic. Of all the candy bar milkshake chains, they're my favourite. The staff aren't the most charming or talkative, but they work hard and are constantly doing something. You can't ask for much more than that. My shake today was so-so. I think they over blended my cherry bakewell as there's usually little bits of the icing and cherry as well adage real almond flavour. I didn't get much of that. I'm sure it was a one off issue as the other 20 times I've been here, it's been great.

What's not to like about candy in a milkshake? It's a bit of a no-brainer, really…read more They have some tasty American things (Lucky Charms! Fluff!) that are really nice. My husband almost always gets bakewell tart, which is at least one whole Mr Kipling bakewell tart pulverised into a milkshake. I mix it up, but the aforementioned Lucky Charms is a favourite. The downside is that it's often quite full of kids, understandably. Unfortunately they're often on their own and obviously too excited to queue, so as a grown up, the wait can be a bit long. Plus the whole process of making a milkshake isn't the fastest. It's also not the cheapest place, but they do loyalty cards, which takes a bit of the sting out of the price. Definitely a great treat on a warm day! Or a cold day. Basically on all the days.

I thought the best ice cream I had ever had was on the shore of Monterosso in Italy. For months…read moreafter our trip to paradise I would weep exaggerated tears for my missed Fragola gelato from the Cinque Terre coast. I cry no more! I had passed Gelato Mio a few times on the bus but it wasn't until a gloriously sunny day after a long hot walk through Bishop's Park did I finally get a taste. The shop isn't very big and for some crazy reason the counter is quite close to the shop window and the blazing sun but other than that Gelato Mio is my heaven on earth. I've been back more times that I care to admit and I am still seriously contemplating getting one of their take away containers and quickly getting it home in a cab, something that would cost me near £20 just for ice cream! Believe me it is worth it. The scoops are generous and all the classic flavours are there. My favourites are Fragola (strawberry) and Pistaccio where my husband's fav is Stracciatella for the rich chocolate chips. My father loves ice cream and he had only just been in town a few weeks before I made my discovery. During that visit he asked if there was anywhere to go for good ice cream near where we live in Putney. If only I had known about this place when he was here. Sigh. I know they have several locations (including St. Pancras) but I've only been to the Fulham branch. The quality is impeccable so I would bet they are all the same. I better go, I have a cab to call and space in my freezer!

I first tried this new place yesterday evening (well new for me, apparently it has been opened for…read morea year or so), after a very stressful day. So I first went for a coffee to a neaby place that I regularly go to so I was surprised when I saw this place on my way home. I frequently pass by this road but I had never seen this place until yesterday, when I walked it by. This means that this place is easy to miss and probably in the wrong location. It looks like it has just open, all brand new and shiny. At first, it looks like it is a small ice cream shop where you quickly buy your ice cream from and eat it out. However, there is a seating area at the back, which I only noticed when the person that served us mentioned it as we were keen to sit down. The seating area is really quiet and calming, just what I needed. The place was empty, so that helped too. There is a comfy corner sofa as well as a few tables with benches. They also offer hot drinks so it is a nice alternative to the usual coffee shop, particularly as they also have wifi, so a good spot to do some work while sipping your coffee or enjoying a lovely Italian gelato. I guess the downside is that the seating area is inside so not the best option when it is sunny outside. Now, on to the gelato itself.... they were really great! I love ice-cream, although I am not ice cream connoisseur, but these tasted delicious to me. I tried several flavours, as I wasn't sure which ones to order and the person that served us encouraged us to taste them first instead, which was great. So I tasted a few and in the end I had the strawberry one (sooo yummy! very creamy and natural), the chocolate and hazelnut one (if you like Nutella, go for it, enough said!) and the banana and kiwi (again, very creamy and natural, it didn't have the strong flavour that the others had but it was very nice too) The person that served us was also attentive and nice. The person I went with mentioned that it would fit better to have a bubbly and outgoing person instead behind the counter, as the girl was an Italian girl kind of shy and quiet. For me, she contributed to the calmness I felt in the place, which is what I was after, so she helped to make the experience pleasant. The one thing that I will say though is that I found it too pricey, at £2.90 for one scoop. This will mean that rather than go there every time I feel like an ice cream (or even just a coffee, knowing that I would definitely have an ice cream too once I see them), I will just go for an occassional treat, shame :(
