They don't sell ice cream. And they moved back to their original location after leaving Loehmans

Not the frozen Dairy, this was back in the early 70's. It was down past Giacamo's pizza

Must have been gone by around 1976 when I moved from Annandale to Falls Church a few blocks from Loehmans (where I worked at CBSH as a kid). Don't remember any ice cream of note at the plaza from that era.

There was soft-serve near the intersection of Annandale & 50, and there was a Bastards & Robbers 31 Flavors there (where I also worked at one time).

Wow, I'm impressed. I've been here for 45 years and don't remember that. I do remember Giacomo's though.

I liked them when they came onto LP years ago, and since I've been away for the last almost-3-decades (and now jaded by the NYC deli scene), I tried them again the other day. Still good!
