Chiil dude! No need to get smart ass on him, serious question.
Pretty frosty reception though..
Not technically ice cream but I prefer gelato so FWIW...
La Paloma is pretty good and I've enjoyed it for years. GBiggest variety of flavours and good quality ingredients. Loved the place!
Until I found Il Gelatiere on Mt Pleasant just south of Eglinton. Their use of really high quality ingredients like pure nut pastes is noticeable to my palate.
There is a new Gelato place on Danforth too that is pretty good.
Hollywood Gelato on Bayview? Meh. Ok, but way overhyped and less selection.
Soma Chocolatiers simply cannot be beat for any chocolate flavored gelato. The use of on site roasted and crushed cacao beans is unreal. Hard to find better chocolate anywhere you may go in the world.
All of the above make for a great casual romantic afternoon date or an after dinner excuse to extend a good dinner or lunch date.
I have heard about this place as best, but haven't tried it personally. So buyer be aware !

Kawartha Dairy is supposedly good for commercial ice cream.
Tom's Dairy Freeze - Practically an institution... It's a little west of Parklawn on the Queensway.
I had ice cream this weekend from an ice cream parlor in Muskoka. They carry Kawartha Dairy.
I can't begin to tell you how ABSOLUTELY AMAZING this ice cream is!!!! OMG so good ~ like the best ice cream I have ever tasted! Like ... unbelieveable..... I'd love to find a place that carries it downtown.
If you ever try it - Cocounut (with toasted bits of coconut in it), Birthday Cake (talk to me later...), Cotton Candy (whaaaat?) and Mint chocolate (always my favourite) come highly recommended. (lol - I had licks of everyone's cones (that really doesn't sound right)
Heard Gregs is good.

Never tried any of the above. I just pick up some Haagen Daz when it's on sale. $3.33 at Metro this week.
