In search for the best soft serve in Phoenix
I know you can get great soft serve from TOPO in Gilbert, but is there anywhere closer to the central Phoenix area where the soft serve just slaps?

Still not in central Phoenix, but a bit closer in the Mesa Asian District is Snowtime in the H Mart food court. One of the specialties there is taiyaki, soft serve with fillings like red bean inside a fish-shaped cone.

And how I could I forget all the Dole Whip vendors at the state fair? I just enjoyed some with Tajin, chamoy, and a tamarind straw. Unfortunately, tonight’s the last night, but there’s always next year.

Not Phoenix but Shakes and Cones in Old Town Scottsdale is great and they are on Door Dash.

I'll have to remember this for next year. Now this looks like a reason for me to hit up the fair!

Pro Tip:
Full credit to JesterOfXanadu for the find, but whether or not they call it Dole Whip (they didn't a few years ago but might have started doing so), the pineapple froyo at Menchie's is absolutely 100% Dole Whip. Or at least it's completely indistinguishable from the same, which is good enough for me.

Re: In search for the best soft serve in Phoenix
I so want to love this place. I live around the corner and have gone at least a few times a year since they opened. It's fine. Just, fine . I like supporting local. I like their seasonal flavors. I like so much about theor menu. I just keep wondering why it isn't just a little bit colder. No matter the weather, it melts instantaneously and the texture is a little loose and could be creamier. I know nothing about making soft serve ice cream, so maybe the solution is much more complicated than temperature, but as is, their soft serve makes for a great shake, but turns into a soupy mess with all other applications.honartvandelay wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 10:23 pm Not Phoenix but Shakes and Cones in Old Town Scottsdale is great and they are on Door Dash.
