I had a brownie sundae at the Chilly Cow two days ago. Link to 13 photos on the Yelp website.
The young woman behind the counter was enthusiastic to take my order. When she heard what I wanted, she asked me which flavors I wanted. There was a list on a blackboard attached to the wall behind her. Some of the flavors were sold out, and those had been erased from the blackboard. When I asked her how many scoops I could have, the owner, standing near her, told me I could have two scoops.
After I made my flavor choices, she started making it right away. When it was almost done, she asked me whether I wanted hot fudge sauce, whipped cream, and a cherry. I had already seen that the whipped cream was the real thing, so of course I said 'yes'. She told me that making the whipped cream was fun, and I believed her.
Sitting down at a small round table, eating my brownie sundae, was one of the best treats I have had in a long, long time. There are other ice cream restaurants that have closed. One very nice one was on the border of Waltham and Watertown. That place was torn down. A house was built on the spot. That's good for the homeowner and the builder but terrible for every ice cream lover in the area.
The Chilly Cow has special deals on their Twitter account @ChhillyCow, but the advertising sign on my table said that these deals don't last very long.
There are also a few other items on their menu. On the day I visited, I could have had a lobster roll in addition to my brownie sundae, for instance.
Thank you to the owner and my server for a very nice treat!
