I can't believe it happened - the first place in Ottawa that serves rolled ice cream has finally…read moreopened! I rushed here as soon as I found out about it on Instagram and I am so happy I did! The flavours were somewhat limited when I went there so I decided to go with good old Strawberry Cheesecake which I absolutely loved. They made the ice cream rolls in front of me and used fresh strawberries for it. The person who made my ice cream was really nice and friendly and took care of my order right away. Overall, I had a really positive experience here and would recommend this place to anybody who is craving ice cream but also wants to try something different, or if you just love rolled ice cream! 5/5!

Went with my children to the Stella Luna Gelato Cafe on 142 Bridge Street in Carleton Place and…read morewill definitely be back anytime we are in Carleton Place. The cafe is connected to the Queens Crafters and Antique Market, but is semi-private. The actual cafe area has quaint seating and is very aesthetically pleasing. Finally...the gelato is incredible. I had the fudgy roman turtle in a waffle cone and it was unlike any gelato I have ever had before. There were lots of nuts and the flavor was extraordinary. My children had fruit flavors and the vanilla bean. All of which were delicious.

The fam and I were in the mood for ice cream and we were going to go to Dairy Queen, but then…read moreremembered the neighborhood raving about Chris's Ice Cream, so we headed there instead to support local. We are so happy we did because the ice cream was out of this world. The kid got the moon mist (which I kept stealing because it was packed with so much flavour), the hubs got the Ah Caramel which I kept stealing as well because I love caramel. I couldn't decide what to get because all the flavours looked and sounded incredible, but I grabbed the jos louis which I tried to keep to myself and not share. As we were eating the ice cream, we were planning out our next ice cream adventure here. The Ice cream was decadent and rich and we had so much fun trying out the different flavours offered here. The owner, Chris, was so friendly and nice as well, as he offered to replace my kids fallen ice cream cone that we were eating outside the shop. Most shops would not do that. The shop is shared with good grazes in the canotek business park, and it is very welcoming inside. We cannot wait to go back!

They advertise that everything is 100% Halal certified. There's also vegan options. We didn't dine in the vibe was indoors was comforting. The staff were really friendly. They took their time to explain everything. It takes about 5-10 mins for the chimney cake to be ready. It was delicious and definitely large enough to share. Lots of different options to customize your treat. I'll be back to try more things!

This was my first time visiting the Chimney Cake Shop on Bank Street, and I have to say it was a…read morepleasant surprise! I walked in not really knowing what to order or what to expect, but luckily I was the only customer at the time, so I had the chance to take it all in. * Service: The staff were friendly and helpful, which made the experience easy and welcoming. * Portion size: The cakes are huge! Honestly, I think a smaller size option would be great, but if you're hungry or sharing, the big portion works. * Texture & taste: Don't expect it to be like a BeaverTail--it's closer to the texture of a freshly cooled scone. The mix of crunchy outside, soft inside, and the added nuts made it really enjoyable. Overall, I'd definitely recommend trying it out if you're curious about chimney cakes. It's a fun treat, different from the usual Ottawa sweets, and worth experiencing at least once!

Amore Gelato is located in the same store as The Crazy Moose of Ottawa. This gelato place is on the…read moreleft when you first walk into the store. After learning that the latter only accepted cash, I checked out Amore Gelato. There was a bit of a lineup, so I knew that it was a good sign. There was a mom in front of me with her kids. We had a nice chat after she specifically said to her kids that they'd get exactly one scoop of ice cream. "We can't have them go on a sugar high and crash," I said, smiling. "Exactly. I'm getting two scoops, though" she said, laughing. This joint offers options for everyone. You can get a variety of gelato flavours that are made fresh every day. Gelato has dairy in it. If you're like me and want a dairy-free option, sorbetto is a nice alternative. I had overheard the conversation between the woman behind the counter and a couple about to pay for their treats: "Is it cash only?" the woman asked. "No, that's the Crazy Moose. We accept all cards and cash," the female staffer said. One word: yes! This same female staffer helped me out with my order. I got the following sorbetto flavours in a cup: - Guava - Lychee I paid with a credit card. I also tipped, thankful that I could use plastic to pay. I thanked her and left with my frozen dessert. There were a handful of little tables with chairs inside the store, but they were all taken. Instead, I went out in the hot weather and found outdoor seating. Luckily, there is a rather large tree that provided a lot of shade. There was also a breeze, so I wasn't sweating buckets. I loved my sorbetto. The guava and lychee were reminiscent of having Vitasoy as a kid. I loved these flavours. They were captured perfectly in the sorbetto, which wasn't all that sweet. The sorbetto scoops were refreshing and enjoyable to consume on a hot July afternoon. There were pigeons that looked like they were innocently befriending me. They were actually waiting for me to make a klutzy move. If I had dropped my sorbetto, they'd feast. They never got any of mine. I finished all of it. So good! It was nice to people-watch as I had my sorbetto. If you have the time to stop and enjoy things in ByWard Market, come here for a scoop of yumminess and savour it. It's a great place. I'd return in a heartbeat. (310)

This place centrally located in Byward Market was the perfect treat to cool off in the Ottawa heat…read more My friend and I were overwhelmed by the options and asked the worker for his recommendations. especially since there were no samples offered. He recommended the mint chocolate, passion fruit and stracciatella. Since I was feeling something more refreshing, we had the passion fruit! It was super tasty and had the right level of tartness (not overly sweetened or artificial), and had a smooth consistency. While it was a bit pricy at $6.25 for a scoop. I'd definitely go back and try some of their other flavours since the quality was quite good

I wanted to try this place out because it's listed as a dessert place and I really enjoy dessert. Perhaps dessert isn't as profitable as one would want because they've "diversified" the menu and serve a few sandwiches and pre-packaged ramen. For me, though, the aroma of stale ramen on the air just doesn't help my appetite for dessert. Also, the restaurant was dark and didn't look as clean and bright as I want in my dessert place (or anywhere I eat). That might have just been my perception. Fortunately, they didn't have the dessert that I wanted. So, we left the ramen shop quickly.
