The Best Ice Cream in the city is available on Forest Ave Again
If your local, than most likely you already know this. If your from out of town you definitely need to know this. Maples makes the best ice cream in the city, if not the whole east coast. So they call it gelato, it’s still ice cream to me and it’s likely the best ice cream you’ll ever taste. You’d never believe it but it’s even low in fat (that’s the gelato part).Many of us were saddened last fall when Maples moved their retail shop to Portland’s Old Port. Sure they’d have more business there but it wasn’t as convenient for those of us wanting to pick up a pint on our way home from work. For the summer at least the 796 Forest Ave is open for walk-in business. You can still find them at 151 Middle St for the ice cream cafe experience. Their web site http://www.maplesorganics.com is under construction but will be finished soon. Run, don’t walk to either Maples location and enjoy a wonderfully delicious cone or cup.
