Sure, sure… we’ve all heard the swooning coming from the assembled masses lining up outside Bi-Rite Creamery. (And yes, we’re in awe of their salt-caramel ice cream, just like everyone else.) But waaayyyy down at the other end of The Mission, there’s another ice-cream shop that’s packing them in every night, just like they [...]

As loyal readers know, I have a bit of an ice cream problem. It is, hands down, my favorite food, my greatest weakness and my guiltiest pleasure. I eat it very rarely as a result, in part out of deference to my arteries and in part to preserve the sense of joy I get when I do get to indulge in it. Although sacrifice, or for that matter self-restraint in general, is not my strong suit, I am capable of controlling myself under some circumstances.

This summer I did a show where one of the characters referenced Mitchell's Ice Cream. Night after night I'd listen to the line in rehearsal. Finally, one night I couldn't handle the temptation any longer and drove straight from my rehearsal in Berkeley to Mitchell's in the Mission. I felt like such a junkie.

Its no surprise to SF locals that Mitchell's Ice Cream has been scooping some of the best ice cream in the bay area. For all the years Ive lived here, its hard to believe its taken me this long to visit. I guess I was always scared of the parking situation in the Mission District. We arrived late and found parking about a block away. I guess the trick is to park behind Mitchell's Ice Cream, have your friend run in and order the ice cream while you wait in the car or park illegally.

Okay, so you might be noticing a theme. A couple weeks ago I wrote about pumpkin pie, and now I am talking about pumpkin ice cream! I have been locked in my house for a couple days straight working, and the dear boy brought me a half-gallon of pumpkin ice cream decadence from Mitchell's last night. It is my favorite ice cream this time of year (to soon be replaced by December's peppermint and the winter season's ginger). If you are in San Franicsco, run to Mitchell's, brave the lines, and try out this pumpkin deliciousness!
