We’ve been hearing complaints lately – more in sorrow than in anger – that Comfy Cow’s popular shops have been down to just a few basic flavors. A couple of weeks ago, co-owner Tim Koons-McGee apologized to the shop’s fans, saying that the bad luck of a broken ice-cream machine and a replacement part that was hard to replace coincided with warmer weather and their grocery retail business ramping up.
Sure enough, when we dropped in to the Clifton shop during Cyclouvia today, there were 16 choices on the board, including some delicious new options: Blueberry cheesecake, cherry chocolate chip, chocolate peanut butter cup, “Coffee with Friends,” Myrtle’s turtle, poppies & lemons, and Rip Van Ripple.
I can testify to the coffee flavor, friends and all (pictured). It’s a rich coffee-and-cream flavor studded with tiny, crunchy bits of candied almond and chocolate-covered toffee. I wouldn’t mind another!
