We tried the famous ice cream in Chinatown—a tiny store located on one of the busy streets. They offer a unique variety of flavours, and customers can taste the ice cream before making a purchase. Everything was delightful. I particularly love coconut, so both of us chose that flavour.
We ordered one scoop, and I was impressed by the size of it. Even though I initially thought it was a mistake, I asked the staff, and she confirmed that it was indeed one scoop.
Comparing it to Chinese sweet levels, I found it to be a little sweeter. Overall, both the service and the ice cream were good.
Expect a line when you come! Super popular because they have Asian-flavored ice creams.
Ordered: Coconut, Black Sesame, Red Bean
Vibe: Small, cute place. All the ice cream is on display and they have merch you can purchase!
Would I return?: 1000%. I really liked the coconut and black sesame.
The visit to the Original Ice Cream Factory in NYC's Chinatown was truly a delightful experience. The first thing that caught my attention was their unique and inventive ice cream flavors. Among the standout options was the "Tan Tart" flavor, a delightful blend of tangy and sweet that left my taste buds tingling with excitement. The creamy lychee ice cream was another highlight, boasting a velvety texture and a refreshing lychee flavor that transported me to a tropical paradise with every spoonful. The combination of these inventive flavors, along with the friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff, made my visit to the Original Ice Cream Factory a memorable one. If you're in the mood for some extraordinary ice cream in the heart of Chinatown, this is definitely a spot worth checking out.
