"Garden Creamery in San Francisco offers a wide variety of dairy and nondairy ice cream flavors. There are more than a few notable ice cream parlors in San Francisco, but Garden Creamery sets itself apart with its salmon pink facade and rotating selection of Asian-inspired flavors. Hawai‘i-born Erin Lang and her partner Donny Capozzi started selling frozen treats from a similarly colored food truck several years ago; they opened their first brick-and-mortar store in 2017 in San Francisco’s Mission District. Patrons line up not only for scoops of Mango Sticky Rice and Butter Mochi Toasted Sesame, but also for Lang’s decadently flavored semifreddo ice cream sandwiches. Garden Creamery does more than cater to dairy lovers: The store also offers a plentiful selection of plant-based options like Thai Iced Tea and Kona Coffee, all made with coconut milk and agave nectar." - Alina Polishuk
