No More McDonald’s Dollar Menu? Eat These 10 Dollar Menu Replacements Instead
Vanilla Cone; Ample Hills
There’s plenty of good, artisanal ice cream in Brooklyn theses days, and Ample Hills is one of the borough’s finest purveyor’s of such. But rather than go with anything fancy, just get the vanilla malted soft serve in a cone. Ample Hills does this classic flavor right, loading it with pure vanilla beans and just the right amount (by which I mean, lots) of malt. And it might not be a dollar, but it’s worth the extra money. Which is really kind of the lesson with all these Dollar Menu upgrades. They might cost a little more in the short-term, but the longer lasting effects are that you’re eating much, much better food. Because you’re worth it? Sure. You’re worth it. Enjoy.
