Clumpies Ice Cream Company, Crestline, Mountain Brook, Alabama

Just a few minutes drive from home, and a short walk from my oldest son's favorite park, the Tot Lot, in Crestline (Mountain Brook) Alabama sits a quaint little ice cream shop, Clumpies Ice Cream Company. Just saying those words makes my mouth water. (Please pardon me as I stop typing to dab the drool from my lip.)

Clumpies, which first came to Birmingham about a year ago, is in one of the three exclusive shopping centers of Mountain Brook, Crestline Village which also has several great eateries such as Surin of Thailand, Fire, O'Teys Tavern, Zoes Kitchen, or La Paz which offer a scrumptious dinner before you run, yes I did say run, over to Clumpies for desert. (for directions from wherever you are click here.)

They have a lick-smacking variety of flavors to choose from. While I love the Blackberry White Chocolate Chunk, my wife loves the Chocolate Chocolate Chunk Raspberry, and my oldest loves the Sweet Cream (for now). My youngest still loves the bottle, but I am sure he will have a favorite soon.

If my kids have anything to say about it, Clumpies will definitely be around for a long time. If you need further proof that Clumpies is the best ice cream around, just check out this link.
