$4.25 for a "Saturdae" with ONE squirt of hot fudge? Fuck you, Loard's. If I wanted overpriced ice cream, I would just head over to Fenton's. Surely, there must be better ice cream parlors east of...

Loard's is an actual ice cream parlor. Not a place that has ice cream to which you can add all sorts of crap and turn it into banana, strawberry, snickers, meatloaf surprise. Loard's has old fashion...

This is the best ice cream, bar none. There is no way around it. Anyone who thinks differently hasn't been there. Go there, have your taste buds blown away.

While I've always been more of a salty-foods person, I must pay homage to Loards - the venerable king of all things sweet and dairy-filled in LaMorInda. I would always beg my mom to let me have the...
