00:19We have three different flavors right now. We have a Moringa Mint Avocado Ice Cream,
00:23which is dairy-free. Then we have a Golden Ice Cream, which is not dairy-free, but it's so good,
00:28it really doesn't matter. And then we have a very indulgent chocolate chili cookie dough
00:32ice cream, which is the one that I came up with because all I kept thinking is, as a child,
00:37I would have loved to have a little bit of chili to my cookie dough ice cream.
01:12We've had a very deepumen and since I was keeping dall'edict, we can add a little something
01:15we have a little bit of chili. We've been living a little bit on the plate,
01:15a little bit of cookie dough ice cream, which is a full-time recipe,
01:15and that's what we have liked. The other one we have, we've got it.
01:34So our cones, I would say, are super whimsical.
01:38They look like little LPACs.
01:41We didn't want to buy a cone-making machine.
01:44I don't even know what they're called because we didn't want them all to look the same.
01:47So we devised these beautiful cones.
01:50We have different flavors.
01:51We have a hibiscus rose, a golden, and a moringa.
01:54And we have edible flowers and poppy seeds and peppercorns.
01:57And the point was we just wanted something to be as beautiful as the ice cream and as
02:01tasty.
02:02And we finally came up with it.
02:04Instead of using a machine, we made our own sculptures so that we could put the cones
02:09around it.
02:10So everything is close to the same size, but it's always a little bit different, which
02:13is what I like about it.
02:15So the hope is that it's so pretty you just have to eat all of it.
02:22So we're an all-day restaurant, meaning we open at 8 a.m. on the weekdays and 10 a.m.
02:27on the weekends.
02:28We have breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
02:29We serve breakfast until 3 p.m. every day because why not?
02:34Our bar is also a huge component.
02:36We're trying to mix our spices from the kitchen to the bar.
02:41So it's sort of a reflection in a good way.
02:43On Wednesdays, we have Women's Wednesdays because this is a woman-owned restaurant where
02:47women drink half-off cocktails and wine by the glass all day long.
