Pretty much anything with ice cream sounds good when you're a kid, but not so much when you're all grown up. However, that's not stopping Belgian-style fries restaurant And The Friet from teaming up with Ben & Jerry's for a limited-edition "Ice And Friet" (¥500). Available at the restaurant's outposts in Tokyo's Hiroo and Harajuku neighborhoods, the snack puts thick fries next to a scoop of Baked Alaska ice cream (vanilla covered in marshmallow sauce and chunks of white chocolate). The combination works pretty well, it's reminiscent of dipping a potato chip into melted chocolate. Just don't load up on these before dinner — Mom will get angry.
We gather here today to wed ice cream to french fries
