  It’s been cooler the past few days, but summer ain’t over yet if the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck (run by Bryan Petroff and Douglas Quint) is still going strong. Bionic Bites Facebook peeps know I’ve been eating lots of ice cream at the truck this summer, but my favorite is still the Salty Pimp ($5), vanilla soft serve on a wafer cone drizzled with dulce de leche, sprinkled with sea salt, and dipped in chocolate. Dulce de leche is nice, but salted and covered with chocolate, it’s pure summer ice cream magic. And for those who don’t like soft serve because the ice cream is always too light, fear not. The soft serve at the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck is incredibly dense and creamy. My only suggestion to make it better, chocolate ice cream instead of vanilla. Vanilla is good, but I’d rather have chocolate any day. And we all know once you go black, you never go back. Unfortunately though, the chocolate soft serve was out of commission the last few times I visited the truck. MORE »
