Cold Rock Ice Creamery, Philippines

A well-known Ice Creamery in the world -- Cold Rock Ice Creamery is also here in the Philippines!

They have several branches but I often go to their Greenbelt 3 and Trinoma branch. I am not sure if there are other branches other than those 2.

Anyway, this is not your usual Ice Cream parlor as this one is considered high-end by Filipinos. An order of small take home pack will set you back nearly 500 pesos! For minimum wage workers, this means spending more than your a days wage for just ice cream.

The Ice Cream, is very milky. Of course, not your usual Magnolia or Selecta type of quality. This is much better. More $$$ = More yummy!

There are other alternatives too as several restaurants already imitated this concept. One of which is the famous ice cream of 5 cows. They prepare ice creams similar to how cold rock does it. Haven't tried other flavors there though because everytime we order the "liempo" (pork) there, we get free bubblegum flavoured ice cream. (also prepared using the same cold rock process).

I know it's cheaper there at 5 cows but buying the ice cream at cold rock reminds me of the cold rock we used to eat in Australia.
