Molly Moon's (Wallingford)

Molly Moon’s is a slow dream ice cream kind of place. A don’t rush me kind of place. Balsamic strawberry. Lavender honey. Thai tea. Mandarin chocolate sorbet.
I linger over the menu longer than I’m supposed to. The person behind me shifts their feet. But they have these sauces I’ve never heard of. Balsamic reduction? And is that really olive oil?
The anna banana split sounds amazing (three scoops of ice cream, three toppings made by Dana Cree, the pastry chef from Veil, fresh whipped cream, nuts).
I’m almost tempted. But it is noon. Does ice cream count as lunch?
I finally decide on a single waffle cone when the girl behind the counter reassures me that “single” really means “2 scoops” and I can mix and match as I like. I go for salted caramel and lavender honey.
It’s an interesting combination, but I wish they were swirled like dairy queen. The salted caramel is so salty I need a glass of water. Is that good? I thought balance was good. When I get down to the lavender they blend and I am happier.
I have heard Molly Moon is her real name and the dog is her real dog (a french bulldog boston terrier mix). I am impressed. They have dog biscuits.
After my beautiful waffle cone I am full and I’ve decided this must be lunch. Flip flops back on and out into the blinding sunlight. Back someday for cardamom and scout mint.
