It had been a while since I had been to the twice-monthly Fresh Market at Wiregrass, but I decided to visit again when I saw the announcement that the not-yet-open OddFellows Ice Cream was going to be on hand at the July 19 Fresh Market, serving samples of ice cream that I had never heard of before. What do you expect from a true ice cream lover?
Well, OddFellows â which currently has four locations in New York City, where brand founder and co-owner Mohan Kumar lives, plus one in Pittsburgh, one in Woodlands, TX, four in South Korea and one in Tampaâs Hyde Park Village â definitely offers a unique and creamy twist on traditional ice cream.Â
There are nine âClassicâ flavors (like cookies & cream and the option I canât wait to try, peanut butter sâmores), plus âLimited Timeâ flavors, like vanilla blackberry blondie, matcha strawberry, banoffee pie, miso peanut butter brownie and the Brooklyn blackout and mango sticky rice flavors Charmaine and I sampled that day â and they both had delightfully different tastes. Thereâs also vegan options for those of you who insist.
OddFellowsâ Ian Heim (at right in photo above) didnât know exactly when the shop will open in Wiregrass, but he said itâs expected to be by the end of this month. Keep checking our âNeighborhood Newsâ Facebook page for updates.Â
When it opens in Wiregrass, OddFellows will be located at 2001 Piazza Ave., Suite 125, next to The Living Room. For more info, visit OddFellowsIceCream.com
