During the offseason the Giants were doing another World Series trophy tour allowing fans to get pictures with both trophies (and selling the photo op pictures making buckets of monies from the fans in the process) and like 2011, I had to get a picture. Remembering the crazy line that had formed at the Lesher Center for the 2010 trophy I once again took the day off to make sure that I had time to get in line early enough and not lose my opportunity to pose slightly incredibly awkwardly with the trophy again.
After I had gotten my picture I decided to try out a sandwich shop that had been recommended to me and headed towards it. Passing restaurant after restaurant I couldn't help but check to see if any had mac and cheese and would thus be added to my list of places to visit. Without even trying I found three new places to stop and I ditched the sandwich shop for a restaurant I'd passed up far to many times that I didn't even know served meals won out. I was further won over by the fact that even if the mac ended up poorly, I had fresh 'home made' ice cream to drown those sorrows away for dessert.
I've managed to walk past The Olde San Francisco Creamery Co. quite a number of times and have even told myself to make it down there when it's a hot day. I'd never successfully completed that mission. Heck, other than it being a very brightly painted building and knowing that there was a 'to-go' window for that drive by ice cream craving I didn't know a thing about it. Did you know they've been featured on the Food Network's Man Vs. Food show because they've got a crazy huge gut busting ice cream bowl? Me either! If this was an ice cream blog I'd be reviewing up the chocolate peanut butter ice cream I had, but think I've got a good thing going with these mac reviews so I best stick to what I know.
The Review
Brand:
The Olde San Francisco Creamery Co. Mac & Cheese

| One doesn't normally expect to find mac n' cheese at an ice cream shop, but i'm not going to criticize (wait that's exactly what I'm doing), unless they make it a flavor of ice cream. |
