Long queue on a sunday night but I waited for about 15 minutes (quicker than I thought). The staff are working hard.
I picked Matcha & Pistachio ice cream. I can only recommend the pistachio.

A delightful little gem on our street! The owner is warm, welcoming, & truly accommodating. The ice cream is top quality with a wide variety of flavours to choose from. She remembers me as'the motorcycle guy' & always manages to pack my sundae perfectly - even well past closing time. Truly remarkable service & a wonderful local experience.

Un petit bijou sur notre rue ! La propriétaire est chaleureuse, accueillante & toujours attentionnée. La crème glacée est de grande qualité avec un vaste choix de saveurs. Elle me reconnaît comme « le gars à moto » & trouve toujours une façon de préparer mon sundae dans un contenant pratique - même 25 minutes après la fermeture. Un service remarquable & une belle expérience locale.

Love this ice cream, might be the best in the province. Fancy unique flavours along with all the classics. I had vanilla chocolate swirl soft serve dipped in maple & I think I may have seen my ancestors. Can't wait to go back & try the other flavours.
I recently (April 28 2025) had their delicious wild blueberry sorbet (soft serve) & it was amazing; I believe its their flavor of the month. I paired the blueberry with their matcha latte (which was also plant based but served as scoops). The matcha latte was good but between the two I loved the blueberry, the matcha sorbet was light in flavor. Overall I highly recommend their plant based ice creams/sorbets.
In the past (April 2024) ive had their vegan vanilla bar dipped partially in dark chocolate & covered in matcha rice crisps (available for a limited time). The inside of the bar had strawberry & matcha filling which seems odd at first but tasted really good. The only thing I wish is that they had more plant-based Ice-creams.
For most of year, they will just have sorbets (Mango, coconut, etc) which are good . One day I really do hope that they will have a plant based vanilla soft serve. But just a heads up, they usually only have one vegan icecream flavor per week & quantities are limited (call before going). Good experience overall.
J'aime l'hiver, j'adore la neige, l'hiver est ma saison favorite, MAIS, elle serait encore meilleure avec Virevent ouvert :)
Merci pour a l'avance pour une autre saison pleine de saveurs!!!

I discovered this ice cream about a year ago & have been going consistently as it's a good ice cream shop in our neighbourhood & I enjoy to support local businesses & also Asian owned. Last weekend event left me bitter... We went around 8:30ish Sunday night. My brother & I both tasted two flavours each before picking up two medium sized ice cream cups. Usually, the cups are filled to the rim but this time, it was a smaller portion than usual. We didn't say anything & went to pay & get an extra spoon because I was sharing my ice cream with my husband who was waiting outside with our baby. The owner made a comment about us taking too much time, which we didn't & we had to fight to get an extra spoon. Despite the unusual service, we thanked her & left. We sat outside & the owner followed us to let us know that her spoons are 7¢each & we shouldn't have asked for another. Also she said that "asian clients usually taste a lot of flavours just to get a soft serve" which was not our case & also very judgmental & disrespectful of her to say that. Anyways, I'd like to give her the benefit of the doubt & that perhaps, she was having a bad day, but this visit definitely left us with a sour taste.
Their artisanal ice-cream is amazing! My coups de coeur were the vietnamien coffee & passion fruit-tamarind sorbet! The owner & staff are very courteous & families were flowing into the parlour non stop! What a great discovery!
