Sign in window says No soft serve chocolate. That was ok....since we were wanting Hot Fudge sundaes with vanilla. Oh...we don't have hot fudge. Hmm...ok. Then the girl proceeded to say, the vanilla has to be in a cup because it is not hardening like it's supposed to. But it's ok. We get the cup with flavor burst. I literally could drink it....so soupy... should just have said, no vanilla either. I could understand if it's a one time issue but going on 3 weeks.

They mix flavors into a vanilla base using a syrup. The biggest issue is that they've changed management twice. They used to be Tom's ice cream. The new management hasnt quite figured out how to generate all the flavors. The new management is still pretty good though. The vanilla base is still some of the best soft serve I've had. My favorite flavors are peanut butter, cappuccino. To be fair, Tom was a dairy jedi. He set the bar really high. In terms of toppings, their sauce game is also strong. They have hardening, chocolate dips, etc. The peanut butter sauce is homemade and my personal favorite. They also have crush ins for the soft serve like reeses pieces and oreos and hard ice cream. These are good, but definitely not the star of the show.

Red meat isn't a regular part of my diet but I found the hamburger of my dreams at Del's Roadside…read morein Kinderhook. I've been there before and I've enjoyed their meals. I think the menu has expanded. There were salads that I could have ordered but when I read the description of their Rodeo Burger, I just had to have one: local beef with huge onion rings. provolone cheese, BBQ sauce and thick Applewood smoked bacon strips on a brioche bun. Wow. It was divine. It cost about $13 which might be a little steep for most burgers but this one was far from ordinary. The same goes for their boozy milk shakes which run about $10. I picked the "Top of the Mornin' ," which consisted of Colombian Coffee Ice Cream, Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey, Irish Cream, iced coffee, whipped cream and fudge. That was every bit as amazing as the burger. However, I only drank half of my shake and gave the rest to my friend because I had to make sure I could drive home. We were both fine. Service was very good. I think it only took about 10-15 minutes to fill our orders. That's pretty remarkable when you see what's involved. It's a family-run operation and everyone there is nice including the young woman who took our order. The farm themed restaurant was very busy when we stopped in on a Sunday afternoon. It was too late for lunch and too early for dinner but plenty of customers were apparently in sync with our schedule. There've been some upgrades to the decor since I last visited a few years ago. It seems they've added a fireplace at one end of the restaurant and a large farm themed play area for kids on the opposite end. There's even a taproom. It's a clean, cozy, family-friendly eatery that serves up farm fresh food. I didn't realize that Del's has another location in Rhinebeck and a family dairy farm in Red Hook. Perhaps my roadtrips will take me there someday.

How much did you pay the last time you had a one scoop ice cream cone? I bet the odds are pretty…read moregood you may have paid triple what I paid yesterday. Because yesterday, I paid (brace yourself) a buck and a half for a one-scoop cone of pistachio gelato. Yup, I really did. Scoop 518 is the quintessential small town ice cream shop. You'll find it located on the picture perfect Main Street of Chatham, NY. It has a very cool eclectic interior with pink trim, black and white mosaic floor tiles, giant circus posters, and I kid you not... a giraffe neck and head sticking out of the upper cabinets behind the counter. They offered 16 flavors, a lot of the first generation basics (chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, coffee, black raspberry, butter pecan, maple walnut, mint chocolate chip), some of the second generation of flavors (cookie dough, cookies and cream, salted caramel, peanut butter fudge), plus a sherbert, 2 sorbets and a gelato for those looking to save some calories. Actually, I paid 2 bucks for my cone because I added chocolate sprinkles for fifty cents. I'm used to having cones rolled around in a bowl of sprinkles for the maximum density of sprinkle application. But that wasn't the case here. She put the sprinkles into a plastic quarter cup container and carefully sprinkled the sprinkles onto and around the ice cream. It didn't work very well and when was the last time you felt ripped off for paying an extra fifty cents? Anyway, 2 bucks for a cone with a smattering of sprinkles is still a fantastic bargain. By the way, the pistachio gelato was delicious.

The walls are painted pink with a few historic pics and classic décor and the linoleum floors are black & white checker pattern, The tables have graphics of historic Coxsackie and metal chairs with cushions. They feature Jane's Ice Cream & sorbet offering around 30 flavors including the whole milk and vegan flavors. Waffle cones, bowls, sundaes, banana splits, shakes, Belgian waffles, coffee, hot chocolate (scratch), cider, and ice cream sammies. They also sell ice cream pints from the freezer. I stopped by Coxsackie Creamery after having brunch nearby. I wanted something to enjoy for dessert and to bring back to the house. Since I am a fan of homemade cookie ice cream sandwiches, I decided to get 4 Ice Cream Sammies ($4.86 each) to go. This was the owner's first go of introducing ice cream sammies. The owner took a while to get things ready and I was able to choose any ice cream I wanted between two chocolate chunk cookies (not vegan), got the vegan ice cream and got 3 pistachio and 1 killer chocolate. The sammies were plastic wrapped and boxed to go. The sammies had thin homemade cookies and the layer of ice cream was ¼ inch thick. I enjoyed two sammies in the vehicle before rushing home in the cold to freeze the other two sammies. The sammies were very, very sweet including the very chewy cookies (not vegan) and vegan ice cream, which melts quicker than regular hardicecream. This is just what I needed for dessert. I would definitely stop by here again for a Belgian waffle topped with ice cream & fruit.
