ST. FRANCIS FOUNTAIN


Ruth loves this old-fashioned ice cream parlor and diner for one simple and straightforward reason: she gets to eat as much ice cream as she can. (and it's Mitchel's ice cream at that). Located at 24th and York, they also sell trading cards from the 80's -- Mork and Mindy, Tron, Duran Duran -- and bubble gum cigarettes. The food is very average, and a little expensive for what it is, but who cares. They have ice cream sundaes, malts, and "clowns." And if you find the somewhat hip service reminiscent of something, (hmmm...I've seen that torn teeshirt on that skinny frame somewhere...) the place is owned by the folks at Bugoolos. (which also explains the average food that is a just a little too expensive and despite that fact is strangely crowded). But, we love it anyway.
