Some of the Best Ice Cream Places Around!
I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream... For Ice Cream
A Food Timeline History tells us that historians credit the Chinese with creating the frist ice creams, possibly as early as 3000 BC. The ice creams we enjoy today are said to have been invented in Italy during the 17th century.
Today with hundreds or thousands of variations and forms ice cream is still a beloved dessert. Here are some great places in the Knox and East Tennessee area where you can enjoy a terrific ice cream treat!
The Phoenix Pharmacy and Fountain
This independently-owned and locally-operated full service pharmacy and soda fountain in the heart of downtown Knoxville is located in the historically rich building known as "The Phoenix." Be sure to read all about the building's history here. The philosophy of their fountain is simple, they believe, "the hard way (the way our grandmothers and great grandmothers taught us to do it) not only tastes better, but is better for you. That’s why everything from our ice cream to our marshmallow fluff is hand-made from the freshest possible ingredients by people who care about providing the best possible experience for each guest every time."
