Ice cream! Ice cream! Ice cream! I had heard about Coldstone Creamery being similar to Marble Slab, so I wanted to come give it a try and see if there’s any difference. We ended up stopping by after a movie at the Metrotown location and decided to pick up 2 as they were having a promo to ‘Buy 1 Get 1 Free.’
The people at the counter waited..and waited..and waited for me to make up my mind! Lol, I kept reading over the selections on the screens, but couldn’t decide what to get! Finally, I went with the below TWO!
Yes, I went with these 2 because Marv is lactose intolerant. You can imagine how quickly I had to eat them as we didn’t want it to melt, and didn’t want to make a mess in his car lol!
The above left is the Mint Chocolate Chip flavour. I enjoyed this one the most! the ice cream was pretty solid and didn’t melt as quickly as the other. On the right is the Strawberry Cheesecake flavour. I normally love cheesecake, but the cheese in this one was much too strong for me to eat. The strawberry also tasted too ‘jam’ish for me. I ended up only eating a bit of this before having to discard it and concentrate fully on the mint chocolate!
Personally, it was pretty much the same concept between Marble and Coldstone. I think Marble wins it for me though, as I enjoy smelling the waffle aroma when entering the store.
