When I first saw Coldstone closed last week, I wasn't going to make a post on it because it seemed clearly temporary, but I was puzzled when the down-time stretched into this week. What kind of high-tech equipment does an ice-cream store have that can't be fixed by a commercial refrigeration repairman in a few hours?<\/p>\n

I hope it is<\/i> temporary, but this is similar to the way the Bruster's<\/a> closing started. Coldstone is pretty good too, though they make it very embarassing for both the customer and the staff to tip there.<\/p>\n

Update 10 June 08<\/b>:<\/p>\n

Well, it's pretty much as I feared. The \"equipment problem\" signs were disingenuous as closing signs often are. Based on what I see inside the store now, it's gone.<\/p>\n

This is the second upscale creamery that Forest Acres has lost recently. Luckily there's still old reliable Baskin Robbins<\/i> up the street and Zesto's<\/i> chocolate dipped soft cones (umm!) across from Richland Mall..<\/p>\n
