Visit Greenville: The Creme Shack

Greenville, South Carolina has always been one of my favorite cities to visit. Ever since my brother moved out here a few years ago, I've found every excuse to come and hangout downtown with him. This week I made my way to Greenville for an exciting job opportunity. I've been job searching heavily for the past few months and this opportunity looks incredibly promising. Stephan and I really want to live here in Greenville and this job could be what finally gets us here (Keeping my fingers crossed as I wait to find out if they liked me as much as I liked them).

One of the reasons we love this city so much is the unique restaurants and stores. Many of the downtown places are local to this area and not massive corporate chains. This city has a lot of character unique to itself. We love coming here to try new restaurants or new ice cream spots, like the Creme Shack (And don't forget about my favorite place, Tako Sushi!).

The Creme Shack is one of those ice cream places that serve rolled ice cream. They have cold plates on the counter where they pour liquid creme and slowly turn it into deliciously frozen ice cream. Ryan and Bekah, being avid ice cream lovers just like Stephan and I, knew they had to take us to this awesome new spot. The Creme Shack was recently opened in downtown Greenville, but when we got there the line was to the door and never got shorter as we moved forward. People clearly love it.

They have a menu with some pre-made options that will help you order quickly, but they also allow you to create your own combination of creme and toppings. I chose the Cookie Monster, which is Oreo cream with an Oreo smashed into it, chocolate syrup drizzled on top, and a massive amount of whipped cream (Yum!). You get to watch the workers smash up your toppings and creme while they slowly turn it into frozen goodness on the super cold plates.

As you can imagine, I was so excited to eat this ice cream after watching it be made. It was a huge serving, and I was barely able to finish it, but I wasn't going to let this treat go to waste. I enjoyed my visit to the Creme Shack and can't wait to come back to Greenville and have another round of rolled ice cream in the future.
