Sure, it\u2019s been cold and wet in San Diego recently, but people love ice cream all year round. Even in winter.\u00a0
\nPacific Beach is now the place to indulge that year-round craving for the cold stuff \u2013 rich, creamy “super-premium” ice cream and sorbet with 18 percent butterfat \u2013 with the opening of the second Hammond\u2019s Gourmet Ice Cream shop.
\nOwners Ryan and Trang Hammond and Daniel Szpak opened the flagship Hammond\u2019s in North Park during the summer of 2014, and the shop was an instant success with mini ice cream cone flights and unique flavors.\u00a0
\nYou see, Hammond\u2019s is no run-of-the-mill ice cream joint. The shop offers over 100 flavors of Tropical Dreams “super -premium” ice cream and sorbet, handmade in Hawaii with a rich, creamy texture. You\u2019ll recognize some of the usual chocolate, vanilla and mint offerings at the counter, but Hammond\u2019s specialty is the variety of island-inspired flavors the Tropical Dreams brand has perfected, including Chocolate Coconut Macadamia Nut, Kona Coffee with Caramel, Mango Cream, Poha Berry, Banana Storm, and many others. The Pacific Beach shop will also feature new flavors of ice cream and sorbet, including Vanilla Rose, Vietnamese Coffee, and Chocolate Mint Sorbet.
\n“We\u2019re very excited to be bringing this delicious and unique ice cream to Pacific Beach,” Trang Hammond said. “Our customers at the North Park shop love the product and the customer service, and I know our new customers in Pacific Beach will also. Our commitment is to serve only the most delicious ice cream and to create a welcoming, comfortable space that enhances our new neighborhood.”
\nThe new Hammond\u2019s is located at 1418 Garnet Ave. and is serving ice cream before the Jan. 9 grand opening. The shop is open Sunday through Thursday from noon to 10 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from noon to 11 p.m. The shop will celebrate its grand opening Jan. 9 from noon to 11 p.m., serving free scoops to customers.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
