Maximum banana
Vic’s Banana Ice Cream
Illustration by SARAH HANSEL
Fancy flavors like bourbon-cornflake bring out the hipsters, but for summertime cones, fresh banana seems more kidlike. Vic’s Ice Cream features its banana flavor only for the summer months, letting the fruit overripen slightly to bring out the sweetness. Then they puree it. Part of the fun comes from matching it with Chocolate Mousse or Peanut Butter Cup in a double scoop ($5.25). Or how about amping up a banana split ($8.75) with it and covering the whole shebang in caramel? Calories be damned! 3199 Riverside Boulevard, http://vicsicecream.com.
