Splash of Flavor 2014: Coffee Oreo Ice Cream at Cabot’s

BANDNA K., Watertown Splash staff reporter|March 10, 2014

The waitress came and she placed three ice creams on our table. One for my mom, one for my sister, and one for me. In front of me sat a medium-sized Coffee Oreo ice cream in a bowl. It was overflowing with chocolate crunchies, my favorite topping on my ice cream.

Where is my favorite food?

The waitress handed us really long spoons to eat with. I just dug right into my ice cream, ready for the mouth-watering journey I was about to go on. Everything tasted so good that even after I was full I wanted more. The flavors all filled my mouth with every single bite.

Over February break, I went to eat ice cream at Cabot’s in Newton. Cabot’s is my favorite ice cream place, by far.

Cabot’s is not your ordinary ice cream place. It looks just like an old-fashioned diner right out of a movie, it is black, white, and red. It has been that way ever since it opened in 1969. Whenever I go, I love sitting in the old-fashioned booths that fit at least four people comfortably. Cabot’s has fast service and the food and ice cream is great, too.

When I was little, my cousin took me to Cabot’s. It was my first time going there. Right then my cousin told me to get Coffee Oreo ice cream with chocolate crunchies. I immediately fell in love with this ice cream and, until this day, I still love it.

Cabot’s has a wide selection of ice cream flavors, such as Cookie Dough, Mocha Chip, Moose Tracks, and Strawberry. They also sell frozen yogurt.

Besides the chocolate crunchies, Cabot’s has other toppings, like hot fudge, walnuts, and sprinkles.

Cabot’s is a restaurant, so you can have a full meal before you eat ice cream. Cabot’s serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Cabot’s also makes cakes, including ice cream cakes, if there is a special occasion coming up.

So if you want to have this mouth-watering, fun, and tasty experience like I had, be sure to go to Cabot’s.
