These shops offer unique flavors and experiences, delighting both residents and visitors. Amidst the rising egg prices affecting local restaurants, these new establishments bring sweet relief and excitement to the community. Fans can look forward to the upcoming opening of Andy’s Frozen Custard and indulge in pop-up events like the Hello Kitty Cafe truck. With these additions, San Antonio’s culinary landscape continues to grow.

San Antonio’s Sweet Treat Scene Expands with New Ice Cream Shops

San Antonio is buzzing with excitement as two new ice cream shops have recently opened their doors amidst rising egg prices impacting local eateries. Residents and tourists alike can now indulge in delicious frozen treats right in their own backyard.

Amorino Gelato Makes a Splash

First up is Amorino Gelato, a beloved international chain known for its signature rose-shaped gelato scoops. Making a grand entrance on February 20 at 200 Riverwalk #105, Amorino treated guests to free tastings that included their delightful Italian hot chocolate — a warm welcome indeed! With over 250 locations worldwide, Amorino prides itself on using natural ingredients and catering to a wide range of dietary needs by offering plant-based sorbets. This makes it a fantastic option for those looking to satisfy their sweet tooth while adhering to special diets.

Muu LaLá’s Anticipated Arrival

Adding to the frosty fun, Muu LaLá is gearing up to open at 2211 NW Military Hwy, #122, Castle Hills. The shop, which is expected to debut in March, will feature an impressive menu of small-batch gelato and invigorating espresso drinks made from locally sourced Merit Coffee Co. beans. Though the exact opening date is still under wraps, ice cream enthusiasts are already counting down the days to sample what promises to be an impeccable combination of high-quality ingredients and artisan flavors.

Andy’s Frozen Custard is Coming Soon

And if you’re still craving more frozen delights, a new location of Andy’s Frozen Custard is currently under construction at 933 Cibolo Valley Dr.. This fan-favorite from the Midwest is set to open in August, bringing its rich, creamy custard to the San Antonio area. Whether you’re a frequent visitor or a first-time taster, Andy’s is sure to become another favorite destination for sweet treats.

Local Restaurants Face Egg Price Surge

While the ice cream scene is booming, local restaurants are feeling the heat from an ongoing bird flu outbreak that has caused egg prices to skyrocket. As a result, establishments like Jim’s Restaurants have reluctantly introduced a 50-cent egg surcharge to help offset the rising costs. It’s a reminder of the ongoing challenges faced by food service providers as they navigate these unexpected market shifts.

Fun Food Events Coming Up

In other exciting news, the Hello Kitty Cafe food truck is set to return to San Antonio, parking at North Star Mall on February 22 from 10 am to 7 pm. This pop-up promises to be an adorable experience with sweet treats inspired by the beloved character.

Furthermore, Comfort Cafe is polling its customers on which dish they’d like to see showcased in their upcoming appearance on “America’s Best Restaurants”. This interactive approach engages the community and ensures local favorites are front and center.

Dine Brands Expands Dining Options

As if that weren’t enough, a new dual-branded restaurant featuring Applebee’s and IHOP opened its doors on February 18 in Seguin, just outside of San Antonio. Located at 2777 N. Hwy 123 Bypass, the dual concept allows diners to mix and match from a menu that includes everything from fluffy pancakes to delicious burgers. Exclusive items such as the Buffalo Chicken Omelet and the Ultimate Breakfast Burger can only be found at this unique location. Dine Brands, the company behind both establishments, is planning to roll out 14 more dual-branded locations across the U.S. by 2026.

Wrapping It Up

With these exciting additions to San Antonio’s culinary scene, there’s never been a better time to treat yourself to some delightful gelato or custard. As the community comes together to support local businesses, both new and established eateries provide a sense of comfort in the face of rising challenges. Join in the fun and stop by these new spots to relish some sweet happiness!
