\"Humphry
\n<\/a>My wife brought me this mysterious package and all I could say is, \u201cSweet fancy Moses\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Now that I’ve swallowed … Humphry Slocombe<\/a> opened just days before 2009, down off that stretch of 24th I like to think of as the Real Mission. Right by the forever-classic soda shoppe, St Francis Fountain.<\/p>\n

When I heard of their Wonka-esque combinations like Pistachio Bacon or Hibiscus Beet, I had a combo of my own: Intrigue with a whisper of Repulsion. But then I tried some.<\/p>\n

Two flavors: Salt N Peppa and Balsamic Caramel.\u00a0Both rich, creamy, and dreamy. And I want more.<\/p>\n

Rather then explain how palette-bendingly awesome these flavor combos are, I\u2019ll refer to this clip from Ratatouille<\/a>:
\n<\/object><\/p>\n

You don’t have to be adventurous to enjoy these flavors, just to get past your initial expectations.<\/p>\n

Treat your tongue to Humphry Slocombe<\/a>. You\u2019ll see visions, too. Or at least taste them.<\/p>\n

(Thanks for the tip, Mel &\u00a0Miriam<\/a>)<\/p>\n
