Swensen's

Heard of it? I just went there, for some yummy and delicous ice-cream!!! It may be expensive a bit(OK, It's very expensive), but the best thing of all, it's delicous!
There are more then 10 flavours, and some are rare. Like the one I chose, the new, brand new, Sticky Choco Mix! Yum you may say, expensive you may say. But i think it's worth it. Actually I think it's the first time I went to Swensens =.=...
There was this main course, that costs Rm60, a.k.a. 20USD, probably one month of your pocket money(depends). I donno if it's expensive or cheap in your country, but for us, it's quite expensive. Would you use a whole month of pocket money just to buy a main course?? On second thoughts I should not ask that. 0_O
Well, here's something from Wikipedia:Swensen's is a global chain of ice cream restaurants that started in San Francisco.
[edit] History
The company was started in 1948 by Earle Swensen. Swensen opened his first shop at the corner of Union and Hyde Streets, along the cable car tracks in Russian Hill in San Francisco at what had been a failed ice cream parlor.[1] Although vanilla was his lifelong favorite, he developed more than 150 flavors, which he marketed under the motto "Good as Father Used to Make". The original store sold ice cream and other frozen dessert specialties (such as sundaes and banana splits), with primarily take out service. Later other Swensen's franchisees added indoor seating and offered various types of food, including sandwiches and hamburgers.
Swensen sold the rights to franchise Swensen's Ice Cream Factories and Restaurants to William Meyers and investors in the 1970s but retained exclusive rights in San Francisco and continued to operate his original store (which still exists today) until 1994, a year before his death at age 83. Under new management the company expanded to 400 stores, mostly franchise locations, by the 1980s. However, in the 1990s it contracted to half of that size before being acquired and expanding again, mostly in Asia. Today the company is owned by International Franchise Corp (IFC) of Markham, Ontario, Canada, which bought the franchise business from CoolBrands in 2006. The chain now includes about 300 franchise outlets worldwide including locations in Asia, the Middle East, the United States and South America. IFC also owns such notable brands as Yogen Früz, I Can't Believe It's Yogurt (ICBY), Golden Swirl and Bresler's ice cream.
