VAMPIRE PENGUIN – Restaurant

Shaved snow, not snow cones: the ice here comes off the block in fine, powdery ribbons that eat more like ice cream than a sno-ball. Build your own or take the house favorites, from strawberry cheesecake with fresh berries and cheesecake crumbles to dulce de leche, Mexican candy, tuxedo coffee toffee, the mango halo-halo and an affogato-style pour. The Park Boulevard shop leans hard into the theme, all penguin murals and an oversized throne chair built for photos. Parents note the coloring sheets and the patience of the staff. Cold, light, and genuinely fun.
