As part of Dine LA Restaurant Week, participating restaurants all over Los Angeles County will offer specially priced 3-course meals (app, entree, dessert) for lunch and dinner.  Prices range from $16-$44 depending on the restaurant.  Some of Dandy Don’s clients are taking part in this event including BoHo, Cafe Bizou, Cafe Was, The Farm of Beverly Hills, Kitchen 24, Monsoon Cafe and The Sunset.  This promotion actually lasts for two weeks:  Oct 3-8 and Oct 10-15.  Visit dineLA.com/RestaurantWeek for more info and, in the case of some restaurants, to see the Dine LA menus on offer.

This dessert brings new meaning to the phrase Ice Cream Sandwich.  Our client Lady Chocolatt on Wilshire Blvd. in L.A. puts scoops of ice cream inside a croissant upon request.  Now that’s a new kind of ice cream sandwich.  What will the Belgians think of next?

Wednesday was a HUGE catering day for us.  We served thousands of sundaes at three different property management parties.  It’s still nice and warm here in Southern California, perfect hot fudge sundae weather.  It’s not too late to book YOUR party. 

The Sunset Restaurant on Zuma Beach in Malibu makes its own Mississippi Mud Pie ($8) using Dandy Don’s Cherry Vanilla Ice Cream.  They use our Butter Pecan ice cream, Banana ice cream, and Vanilla Bean ice cream in their Banana Split ($8).  And they use Dandy Don’s Chocolate ice cream in their Chocolate Fondant ($8) which also involves nutella powder and cocoa-dusted hazelnuts.

The summer Lobster Fest at Dandy Don’s Ice Cream client Cafe Bizou is almost over.  Go into either the Sherman Oaks, Santa Monica, or Old Pasadena locations to get a 3-course lobster meal for $29.
