Great Movies & Ice Cream

The Film Buff is great because it carries movies that you cannot find in the big box rental stores.

There are a lot of foreign films, etc.

And... there is an ice cream bar in the store. You get a ton of ice cream for a very very reasonable price.

nice selection of non hollywood type movies

BTW - the ice cream they sell is great!

They didn't have many options (about 8) but I did love what I got. I forgot the name but it was vanilla mixed with caramel, chocolate and nuts. It is basically a caramel praline.

One of those local joints that make me miss living in this 'hood.

Was reminded of its awesomeness while in the area on the weekend. Stopped in for one of the delicious aforementioned ice cream cones -- these guys give you what amounts to a double scoop at some fancier places. Really tasty flavours at a great price (they didn't have my favourite on hand, watermelon with chocolate cookie pieces,... more
