Chocolate Ice Cream

“Mister Softee is reminiscint of my Childhood till the age of eighteen.

I thought it Great Mister Softee was opening in Santa Barbara CA.

It took me awhile to remember the absolutely Beautiful and Very Professional Team responsible for bringing Mister Softee to us.

I have made visits to Mister Softee and was completely unaware of Poster describing how this Poster described the Journey embarked by the two Beautiful People Owning Mister Softee.

With Names included.

Even though I was not smart enough to read this Poster, The Two Beautiful People responsible for bringing Mister Softee to us were always very happy to see me, and always extremely cordial.

If you have never experienced soft serve ice cream, you are in for a Treat by Visiting Mister Softee.“

“I still do not quite know what italian ice is, but I know I like it. This was a perfect size and refreshment on a warm day in Santa Barbara. I thought it was better than ice cream and full of flavor. I had mango with another flavor (cannot remember) recommended by the staff and it was a perfect combo. Highly recommend trying“
