“Every Thanksgiving, Baskin Robbins offers a festively bizarre ice cream cake shaped like an actual turkey! They start with a giant MOUND of your favorite ice cream flavor, mold it into a turkey shape, cover it in cake frosting, add cones as turkey “legs,” and douse the entire faux bird in caramel praline glaze to give it a fresh out-of-the-ovenesque sheen.
The sheer spectacle and concept of such a cake entrance me every year! I normally resist the temptation to buy one of these magnificent looking dessert creations each holiday season to spare my wallet (and waistline). However, my buddy Rick was kind enough to front the cost of a turkey cake for me to finally try this year…. On one condition 😈… I devour one entire cake in a single sitting. I could not turn down such a awfully generous offer and promptly took him up on his ice cream cake challenge.
I immediately called up Baskin Robbins and asked for a cake filled with with eggnog ice cream for the light “breast meat,” and chocolate peanut butter stuffed in cones for that dark “leg meat” 😂. The Baskin Robbins team took careful note, filled my order precisely, and even had it all ready for me to pick by the end of the day! Huge kudos to the staff at the Patterson location for their impressive speed in “cooking up” this bird the week of Thanksgiving!
I brought it home and let it harden up in my freezer overnight before I giving this turkey cake its final rites. Clocking in at a mere 3.75lb, I was able to ram the whole thing back effortlessly and casually in a quick 10 minutes and ONE second 😆. Despite my rapid gorging, I still savored each and every spoonful that passed my lips.“

“Lots of flavors. Blueberry pistachio in a cone- flavor and ice cream texture was exactly how it should be. Cone was crispy.
Grabbed some pre made ice cream sandwiches. Crispy fresh cookies were too sweet for me. Vanilla had a clean vanilla taste. Chocolate was deep. Strawberry could've use more of that sweet tart Strawberry flavor. Mint was heck a minty- not a complaint...lol...
Tight indoor space. No indoor seating. Decent parking. Nice large grassy outdoor area.“

“First time here. 80 degree weather. All of a sudden a line. Bam, 4 workers at the window helpful and pleasant. That’s my kinda of business. Kudos to the owner. Enjoyed the ice cream. Clean area. What more could a customer ask for. I’ll be back!“
“I’ve been a self-proclaimed Starbucks girl for YEARS, but now Reverie is my go-to place for coffee and a delicious treat. You simply can’t beat the service at Reverie. All of the baristas are incredibly pleasant and are great at recommending drinks and customizing them to your liking. The menu has a great variety and you can always a get a copycat of your favorite “chain store” drink (and a better one at that!) While I’m a die-hard coffee girl (iced caramel or mocha latte for me!), what has really sold me at Reverie is their food. I love the variations on classic breakfast items like waffles with delectable toppings, and “hummus toast” as opposed to the traditional avocado. I love their Mushroom Avocado Toast, Everything Chixpea Toast, and the classic Peanut Butter Banana + Honey Toast. Yum! With locally sourced ingredients and a new, refreshing vibe at Promenade on 6, you can’t go wrong making this your new breakfast spot!“

“First time having Shake Shack and it exceeded my expectations. We had it delivered through Uber Eats. It arrived quickly which I was surprised since it was Friday night. I pass this location everyday and have never stopped. It’s across from the Danbury Mall. The fries were ok. The burger was greasy and delicious, just what I needed that night. Onion rings were also good. Very crispy.“
