I would say that it's better than the old sainted Ade's water ice up Ridge near Shawmont... and that's high praise.

Yes, I have read that it's a very popular girl's name right now, but it's still weird, to me, anyway. Not to mention all the misspellings the poor girl is going to have to put up with all her life.

Well I guess it's a matter of taste. I, for one, HATE little pieces of fruit or anything in my water ice. I like it nice and smooth so it just trickles down the back of my throat. I don't like to have to chew little bits up. But that's just me. I'm certainly willing to admit that most people like the fruit pieces. So even though I really prefer cherry water ice overall, I usually have to get rootbeer to make SURE there are no pieces in it.

Default Yep - #1 place!

Always a great group in there - very nice to the customers!

Best quality too!

Still not used to the new name - I still refer to it as Michael's, or the old Michael's.
