Title: I want Eddie's and Hanks!
Post by: kimmi on April 21, 2007, 08:32:15 AM
I will pay top dollar to anyone that can successfully send me 2 footlongs with sauce and cheese intact and a twist cone without it being melty!!

:biggrin:

I could probably pull off the Eddie's thing without (too) much of a hitch...you'd have to figure out how to heat the stuff up & assemble...

But, can't think of a good solution for the Hank's custard...

...besides that, would you want the vanilla or the chocolate on top?

Good thinking!  I don't know.

We have a chain down here called Goodberry's.  Mike calls it the crack house.  People line up down the street for the place.  They say it is frozen custard, but I think they are full of it!

Interesting.

Somebody is opening a custard stand here in town...wonder if it'll remotely resemble Hank's or more like your place?

Isn't the trick in the machine?

Yes I think the machines are key! Why would someone try and open another ice cream place there when there is Hanks and a Dairy Isle in every little community?  I sure do miss Dairy Isles!  That was my weakness when I lived in Saegertown!

Isn't that the truth?!?!? I soooo missed having a Dairy Isle flat in the middle of nowhere while living in FL~LOL! Our options were mostly commercialized (e.g. The Ice Cream Shopppe, Dairy Queen, Brewster's).

I guess the town of Meadville doesn't really have one...just Dairy Queen in Vernon Township.*shrug*

That's right.  No more Baskin Robbins.  Is Bobbie's still at the downtown mall?  I use the word mall loosely!

Oh, forgot about that Ice Cream stand...it's no longer Bobbie's -- not sure what it's called now.

Mall...loosely... :yes:!

Okay, so saw an ad in the area shopper...Bobbie's is called The Corner Cafe (or something close to that). Looks like they still have hand-dipped ice cream, but have expanded their lunch menu.

Oh, and I indulged for you this week, Kimmi. It's really bad being right next door to Eddie's every Tuesday & Thursday! :biggrin:

GRRRRR!  I so wish I was going to go buy hotdogs right now.  Instead I'm going to buy a lawn mower and teach myself how to mow a lawn!  Yuck!  :-\

So I read that Hanks is open.  Go get some custard for me!
Title: Re: I want Eddie's and Hanks!
Post by: Sunny on April 03, 2008, 06:39:13 PM
Sure will! Maybe even tonight. The 50's feel so...springy! 8) Definitely getting to be ice cream weather.

Eddie's has been opened for well over a month now, but I've yet to indulge.

How about FTW? Wonder if he's had his "works" yet?

50s is ice cream weather?!?!??  :spooked:
Title: Re: I want Eddie's and Hanks!
Post by: kimmi on April 03, 2008, 09:54:27 PM
50's is shorts and sunscreen weather there Locutus!  :biggrin:

What I wouldn't give for a sauce and cheese right now.  Working out makes me hungry!
Title: Re: I want Eddie's and Hanks!

Sorry, but 50s is cold weather gear for me.  :yes: ;D

Funny how our perspective is influenced by our environment, Loc. ;)

2 years ago, I'd agree with ya...50's was sweater wearing weather & time to turn the central air over to heat...

Up here, it's the sign of warmer days ahead & dairy isle eatin'! ;D

(good one, ftw...need a little lemon blend to wash that down with?!)

'Tis the season, NW PA folks! Hard to believe that Eddie's opened almost 2 weeks ago already. Haven't been there yet, but I swear I could smell them from a mile away the other day while getting out of the car at KMart. Is that possible?
Title: Re: I want Eddie's and Hanks!
Post by: kimmi on March 20, 2010, 06:48:46 PM
I'm sure it is possible.

Finally broke down and had Eddie's for dinner tonight. Classic and delicious.  :)

Did it make you want to go and get your old job back?   :biggrin:

Almost. Those were the glory days....if it didn't come with complimentary 'onion odor' all summer I could've made a career out of it!
