Soft Peaks Review

If you didn't know, I love ice cream. I have been trying different ice cream places recently. I have always wanted to try Soft Peaks but never got a chance. I tried to look for something like that in HK and Korea but I couldn't find it. I know they have it somewhere. Finally got to try it, it's located in Gastown. That side of Gastown isn't that busy to me but there were still quite a few people that came in. I like the decor on the cashier side, it reminds me of honeycomb, simple and nice. The staff there were very nice.

I ordered the Blue Mountain ($6.50, I love purple stuff) and my friend got the Salty Himalayan. There are two different sizes to choose from, around $1 difference. Honestly, there were so much flavours to choose from. I want to try all of them. I wanted to try the Honeycomb or the Sunrise in California too.  You can DIY one yourself too. I thought their ice cream isn't sweet at all, it had a strong milk taste to me (I don't like milk). It may be a good idea to stir the syrup from the bottom because it's super sweet at the bottom. I think they should just put more of that syrup on the top instead since it's pretty hard to stir when all the ice cream are on top.

They also have milkshakes and popsicles but I came here for the soft serve ice cream. I'm gonna say the price is ok because every ice cream place I have tried recently is around this price or more. Not sure why ice cream is so expensive nowadays but ok. I guess it's a luxury item now?

I wanted to wash my hands because it was so sticky. Their washroom door is so hard, make sure you push and pull really hard to open it. Overall, not bad, will come again to try other flavours when I come to Gastown.
