Independent Journalism in Dallas Needs You
We need to raise $12,500 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Real ice cream, the kind with lots of butterfat, seems to be nearly extinct. Culinary Darwinism truly favors survival of the fittest these days, so natural selection is in favor of frozen yogurt. Only a few places, most of them the remnants of chains, still serve real ice cream, scooped on a cone. David J’s is primarily a wholesaler–you’ve eaten their cappuccino pies and specialty ice creams in many of Dallas’ best restaurants–but they do keep a tiny shop open at their factory on Alpha Road, just west of the Tollway. Stop in and indulge.
