#2. What sparked your interest in this particular field?

A: I’ve always loved ice cream. I eat it all the time, breakfast, lunch and supper. My favorite flavor is coffee.

#3. From a business owner’s perspective, what is your impression of Bedford-Stuyvesant?

A: I grew up in Crown Heights, but I now live in Borough Park. This Bed-Stuy location is actually the third one I’ve opened. I have two others: one in Flatbush, and another in Borough Park. But this location does very well; it’s very surprising how people come from all over, even Manhattan.

#4. Can you share something interesting about yourself or the store?

Aside from kosher ice cream, we also have a big selection of non-dairy, vegan ice cream. And we also have a big salad bar!
