Coney Ice Land

On Sunday, after some pizza at Pizzaiolo, I decided to head to Eva's near Bloor and Bathurst to try Kürtőskalács, a Hungarian treat. This is essentially ice cream with a thick doughy cone. I got the mini with chocolate ice cream ($5.25). The larger one is over-the-toppings, pun intended, if you want an instagram shot.

The soft-serve ice cream was average and nothing to rave about. But the thick, freshly baked, cone was a treat. I don't usually like crumbly wafers messing up my ice cream, hence my preference for a cup. But this cone was warm, chewy, and had an inviting cinnamon flavour. I quite enjoyed this combination although hot holder made for fast-melting ice cream. At the end, there was a hidden treat. The hole at the bottom was plugged with a chocolate-covered nut. Don't worry, this gumball-esque confection can be chewed on and not a plastic stopper as was my first reaction.
