Ditto on Peachwave, Asian three. We know what is good.

Here it is...A generous scoop of peanut butter with peanut butter topping.

Helene says Peanut butter with chocolate topping...

And Sweetie says Raspberry.

Serve all on a hot July evening and savor the coldness as you sit outside Peachwave and chat with others doing the same.

Lower Paradise. Just what PTurner always says about this wonderful place that is our hometown.

Makes you grateful for hot weather. What a treat.

Ollies is the closest thing to the frozen custard that they had on Long Island when I was growing up.

We had two Dairy Queens........both went out of business.

It would be high calorie heaven to have a Culver's open up here in TV ... LOVE their frozen custard and I'm a southern gal!

Culvers is excellent...very much a Midwestern chain. One Culvers in South Carolina and 10 in Texas - that is the closest to TV that Culvers is located at the present time. Much better fast food than McDonalds.

The new Baskin Robins (next to the hospital) has both soft serve and hand packed ice cream.

Not too long ago we had two DQ's in The Villages. Both were owned by the same guy. They sold their buildings and left. Have no idea why.

Frozen custard has a higher egg content than ice cream. The taste doesn’t really appeal to me but I know some people are crazy about it.

We go to Ocala probably twice a month and we always stop on the way back at the Dairy Queen in the Pilot Gas Station about halfway on I-75. There is the Don Garlit Drag Racing Museum and a Jet Fighter on the east side and on the west side you'll see the Pilot which has the DQ and a Wendys. Also there is a Golf Outlet and Golf Shoe Store in the shopping center there. You'll see billboards for all those, it's exit 341 Marion Oaks.

Pilot - 2020 SW CR-484 - Ocala, FL - Florida Gas Prices

Also the McDonalds at Colony has $1 vanilla cones and now they have them chocolate dipped for $1.30. However the chocolate is almost too rich and thick. I just came from having one there, I'll probably forgo the dipping in the future at McDonalds.
