The pastries were RICH and so velvety - but it's not so sweet you get tired of it after a few bites. We demolished the blueberry tart in a minute, because that creamy custard with the raspberry filling, and the insanely gorgeous crust and the tart/sweet blueberries? Stunning. I swear I died and came back to life so I could eat more. The calamansi tart was also delicious, but I wish the calamansi was stronger and more tart (and had more, in general). The meringue bit was so creamy and sweet that it needed more sour from the calamansi. But I would still eat the hell out of it. I wish we'd gotten there earlier so we could have bought one of everything, but then I'd die of diabetic coma and be very very poor in the wallet.

You don't need to add anything else because there is a bit of saltyness meets the sweetness of the banana and the coconut flakes gives it a decent amount of texture over the ice cream base. I got to sample the banana almond chocolate ice cream that one was good. The toasted coconut ice cream left me a lot to desire because I did not get to experience the actual coconut flavour besides the texture of flakes. That one felt like it was vanilla ice cream with toasted flakes. They do make sure customers are satisfied. The ambience reminds me of Ladurée in NYC minus the crowds. I loved the decor and the intentionality behind it. I loved the wallpaper in the bathroom. It was so cute and whimsical. I need to come back and try the crepes by coming in before 4pm. Otherwise, if you come past 4pm you can still try their pies, and ice cream with a glass of dessert wine( I saw they had during my visit a good port selection!). One last thing, I took home some their homemade cookies. That academia cookie, hit the spot and will definitely recommend you to try it!

After some perusal, I elected a chocolate mousse slice. It was a resplendent work, with strong chocolate but a mix of flavors including a surprise hit of caramel at the bottom. The ice cream is locally made but I certainly did not have room to try it. There seem to be several local businesses under this general ownership, which gives one a good reason to pull over while traveling through the region.

I had a bite of each of three, my husband ate all the rest. Historically, I am not a cupcake person, but I recently had a magical cupcake experience with a bakery near me in PA. Thinking the magic might continue at other bakeries, we gave this place a shot. Unfortunately, Jo-Jo's didn't measure up to my five-star place. Cakes were dry and a bit flavorless. Icing was very good in contrast, and the Oreo, choco pb, gingersnap, etc. flavors were definitely there atop each cake, but the cake itself was acerbic and left a bad aftertaste that made me crave mouthwash. That probably sounds a little harsh, but it's the truth. It is a shame that they don't work on cultivating a better cake, because the product is half-way to stardom! It's gotta be the whole combo to be a successful product. Maybe the ice cream is better? The gentleman helping us was very kind, the decor was very appropriate and cheerful, and the fun facts on the wall were interesting. Their St. Michaels location is in a cute little beach shack, but this Easton one is at the end of a shopping center. If we are in the area again we'll try their ice cream and report back!

I ended up getting a "Kids Meal", which is 4 party chicken tenders and 1 side for $10. Does NOT include a drink. Sodas were an extra $2-3 The chicken was good, seasoned well. Large portions. I had the mashed potatoes and gravy, which was good too. I got a little side of Pretzel salad, for about $2.30. Tasty! We were standing at the counter for quite a few minutes, and no one came over to help us. We then went to a far side of another counter and someone said they would be over, and she was over promptly at that point. I wanted a smoothie, and there is a stand near the pastries. I had the Blueberry smoothie, $6.99. It was okay. I wanted something more refreshing and sweet, and this was not it. We arrived about 20 minutes after it opened. There was already a line for chicken/meat items. Open parking space outfront. Bathroom could use some papertowels. There was only 1 hand drier that worked

On my first full day exploring St. Michaels, I had already knocked out an awesome dinner…read moreoverlooking the harbor and found myself with one remaining mission for the evening. Ice cream. Actually...excellent ice cream! My dinner waitress recommended Justine's Ice Cream Parlor without hesitation, so I wandered a few blocks through downtown and walked in around 5:30pm on a Friday evening during Fourth of July weekend. To my surprise, I had the entire place to myself, which was perfect because this place has SO MANY choices that I needed some uninterrupted decision-making time! Justine's has been serving homemade ice cream in St. Michaels since 1987, and it's easy to see why it's become such a local tradition. Beyond dozens of ice cream flavors, they offer their famous Wall of Shakes, sundaes, floats, dog-friendly treats and even the legendary Titanic Sundae Challenge, a 6 1/2-pound mountain of ice cream and toppings that was featured on Man v. Food. Watching someone attempt that challenge would almost be worth the trip all by itself! After staring into the cases for far longer than I'd like to admit, I settled on the Choco Taco ice cream. Then the friendly employee behind the counter casually suggested turning it into a sundae inspired by one of their Wall of Shakes creations, the Sinnamon Toast Shake. Say less, kind ice cream human. Please, make my dreams come true! For $7.50, I was handed what can only be described as a work of art. Choco Taco ice cream topped with crushed graham crackers, warm butterscotch, caramel sauce, whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon. Folks...It was PHENOMENAL! Even more shocking? There wasn't a single peanut butter ingredient involved. As someone whose personality is approximately 63.8% peanut butter, that's saying something! The Choco Taco ice cream was rich and chocolaty with crunchy waffle cone pieces mixed throughout, while the butterscotch, caramel and cinnamon transformed it into something that tasted warm and comforting despite being ice cream. Every bite was a little different, and every bite was fantastic! There isn't dedicated parking right outside the shop, but I had no trouble finding free municipal parking just a short walk away. Inside seating is pretty limited, with just a few spots available, though there are a handful of tables outside along the sidewalk that would be perfect on a beautiful evening. Whether you're stopping in for a scoop, tackling the Titanic Challenge, working your way through the Wall of Shakes or just looking for a sweet ending to a day exploring St. Michaels, Justine's absolutely deserves a spot on your itinerary. My dinner waitress gave me an excellent recommendation. And, now, I'm passing it along to you!
