I don't either eat soft serve--I get regular hard ice cream, the way God intended for ice cream to be made!

Sadly, you need to take Kabookie's off the list. They have closed and will be reopening as some other kind of restaurant. Goodbye, Kabookie's!

Sadly, you'll have to take Kabookie's off your list. They have closed and are opening up as a different type of restaurant. Goodbye, awesome tomato bisque soup!
