P: Sweet Cream Hot Fudge Sundae

J: Chocolate Puddin'


Notes:
Amy's is an old favorite of mine.  It's quintessential Austin - weird.  I can't really put it any other way.  Their ice cream is dense, creamy and rich.  While I always knew Amy's for their wacky and inventive flavors, the menu board seems to be overwhelmingly tried-and-true these days.

Their Key Lime Pie ice cream is hands down my favorite, but I haven't seen it on the board in ages; I silently wonder if they still make it.  Every time I visit Amy's, and Key Lime Pie isn't there, I'm a little sad.  This time, I drowned my sorrows in Chocolate Puddin'.  It was intensely rich and chocolatey.  Woe is me!

Patrick, on this 90+ degree day, decided to beat the heat with a hot fudge sundae; thick and decadent fudge sauce over sweet cream ice cream (think vanilla without the vanilla).  He was very happy.  Well played, sir.


We'll be back.  Maybe next time, Patrick will let me take him to the Arboretum location so we can play with the cows.
