It's the perfect little hut, situated just outside of Bala town, with its own dock and excellent views of Bala Bay. Unfortunately, none of these ice cream places ever seemed to be open in the middle of the summer at the height of cottage season. Until The Scoop. Purchased last year by a local college student and her brother, the hut received an adorable Canadian facelift -- red, white and brown paint -- revamped signage and a new life. The siblings take turns working each evening, greeting customers and proudly scooping delicious, Ontario-based Kawartha brand ice cream. A tiny Swedish berry in lieu of a cherry on your scoop is their quaint signature. We're *so* glad they've set up shop in Bala and wish them the best of luck for continuing success; cuz nothing beats grilling your dinner al fresco followed by a boat ride to town for frozen dessert.

But I have seen their online presence growing as well as the lines they have so we decided to give it a shot! We came around 11am on a Saturday. I wanted to try their coffee and bagels and my boyfriend wanted a pizza so we divided and conquered. The Smoked Salmon bagel was great - the bagel itself was nice and chewy (some capers would've put it on another level), but there was a good amount of all the ingredients (cream cheese, smoked salmon, red onion, arugula and fresh dill). The coffee was enjoyable, as there aren't many options for to go coffee in Dorset. The pizza was phenomenal!!! Fresh out of the oven, amazing quality ingredients and tasted delicious! I'm looking forward to trying their other pizzas as they all sound very good! Such a good food spot so close to our cottage too! I'm glad we decided to check these guys out again!

And they only have a bit of organic guar gum to keep the ice cream all silky smooth. Many other ice creams including Kawartha have carageenan in them which is not good for us at all. After speaking with the lovely owner who is a chef (all ice cream made ON PREMISES) we learned that a few shops carry this ice cream (2 places in Scarborough ON and also The Royal York hotel). After an absolutely terrible and underwhelming and laughably overpriced lunch at Local this was a great reward.

Belly was located across the street from our Air Bnb during our weekend stay in Huntsville. And…read moreeach night we looked covetously over at Belly as we pulled into our driveway, arriving too late from dinner to get there before they closed. It was a priority of mine to finally visit Belly our last evening but then the time started slipping away from us. We thought all was lost after it turned 8, but then we serendipitously looked over our brochure for Belly again and noticed that on Saturdays they closed at 9. We hustled over, only to have the doors close on us at 8:59. The manager told my daughter she'd already started putting covers on the ice cream. And then I begged and said it was our last night and she responded that she couldn't say no. So of course we each got lots of samples. Kidding! The Kiddie scoops followed the usual trend in Ontario of ridiculously large scoops of ice cream. At Kawartha Dairy where we ate the day before, a Kiddie was like a large where we live in the San Francisco Bay Area. This time the Kiddie was more like the size of a Medium. (A Medium at an artisan creamery in the Bay Area is $8.50 American compared to this Kiddie $3.50 Canadian.) The two Kiddie scoops were a bargain and easily fed the four of us. My daughter earlier had pored over the Belly brochure we had at our Air Bnb, and requested the Blueberry Lavender. Even though it wasn't in the case, the manager had a container just behind her! (Unfortunately they didn't also have the Sticky Toffee Pudding Flavor I also saw in the brochure.) My son got the Chocolate Dipped Strawberry, which was more like strawberry with some chocolate chips than what I'd imagined by the name. Maybe there's a better way to make it actually taste like it sounds? These are all minor quibbles. The ice cream was excellent and both were better than the flavors we got at Kawartha Dairy. The blueberry lavender was really good and my favorite of the two. I'm sometimes skeptical of floral notes in food but this worked. The strawberry in the Chocolate Dipped Strawberry was easily better than Kawartha's strawberry. This one had real strawberry flavor and actual strawberry pieces in it. I felt like the chocolate taste didn't come through in the chips, which often happens with chocolate chips in ice cream. My daughter (absorber of the Belly brochure) filled us in on the founding of the store while we ate. She said that the name came from a mom who had a big pregnancy belly while carrying twins. As a fellow twin mom I relate. If this was 14 years ago I'd come here to eat for three. Best tastes of Huntsville trip 1) Farmer's Daughter (pierogies) 2) Farmer's Daughter (berry scone) 3) BELLY (blueberry lavender ice cream) 4) Allora (papardelle with short ribs) 5) Farmer's Daughter (lentil wrap) 6) Farmer's Daughter (mac and cheese) 7) Farmer's Daughter (chocolate chip cookie) 8) Farmer's Daughter (iced chocolate chai) 9) BELLY (chocolate covered strawberry ice cream) 10) Farmer's Daughter (bean avocado edamame salad)
