Is Ramen Finally Coming to Austin Street?

End of Story

Well, this probably won't come as much of a surprise. After all, how much ice cream can Austin St. have? I think this now leaves Shake Shack, Snowdays and the Baskin-Robbins inside Dunkin' Donuts as your Austin Street ice cream choices. Down for the count are Häagen-Dazs and now Snow Story.

Coming Soon: Snow Story Ice Cream Roll

Not to be confused with Snowdays, which just opened a bit further up the block yesterday, my friend today emailed me these photos of yet another dessert place coming in to Austin Street.
This is directly across from the church down near Ascan, where a nail salon used to be.
See below the pics for more info about ice cream rolls.



From Zagat: Forget crazy flavors or over-the-top ice cream sandwiches, this summer's hottest dessert is a frozen treat that's made its way to NYC by way of Thailand. Thai-style ice cream rolls have debuted at not one, but three shops this season, but what exactly makes this chilled specialty different from your typical scoop? It's made to order, for one. Here's how it works: An ice cream base and your choice of add-ins are poured onto an anti-griddle, a metal plate that can get as cold as -4 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the owners of I-CE NY. Then, in Cold Stone-esque fashion, the staff chops and smashes the ingredients together with metal paddles as they start to freeze. In just minutes, the cream firms up and it's spread into a thin layer, then scraped into the chubby rolls that we're seeing all over Instagram.
