There’s a new delicacy in Astoria that’s been here since early March. I’ve been making almost weekly trips to enjoy all the fantastic temptations at Ralph’s Famous Italian Ices of Astoria.

My favorites have included a cup of chocolate and cherry coke ices, and the twister: soft serve ice cream on the bottom and top, with a layer of the ice flavor of your choice in between. There are so many flavor combinations and options of things to try, you may just find yourself going back every week like I do! (Follow me on Instagram and Twitter at @anecdotally.em.) It’s right across from Athens Square Park—a great place to people watch and eat frozen treats!
