Ice cream ascended to popularity in 1972, when Richard Nixon returned from China with a Ming vase full of rocky road and kindly split it with Elvis Presley. Mix east and west into a tasty swirl with today's Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of ice cream at Chinatown Ice Cream Factory on Bayard Street. Buyers can exchange their Groupon voucher for a punch card on their first visit and return multiple times to indulge in the full value.
Chinatown Ice Cream Factory treats its customers to many different flavors of Asian-inspired icy treats. Adventurous patrons may dive straight into the flavor vortex with selections including black sesame, wasabi, or the taste-bud-enlightening Zen butter. Those seeking more familiar faves can chill with a scoop or two of chocolate, vanilla, or mint chip ($3.75 for a single scoop, $5.75 for a double scoop). Screaming sorbet fans will melt in the presence of tropical tastes such as strawberry colada and mango-papaya, and Chinese favorites such as lychee sorbet are tasty enough to require protection from pickpocketing Victorian ragamuffins.
Owner Philip Seid has ruled a dynasty of skilled ice cream artisans for more than 28 years, making Chinatown Ice Cream Factory one of the oldest businesses in Chinatown. The staff will gladly assist newcomers with sample tastes to make their difficult decisions a bit sweeter and entirely free from vexing, fatalistic riddles.
