If you've been hoping the suburbification of New York is just a bad sugar nightmare you're having after one too many 7-Eleven Slurpees, well, here's more bad news: Dairy Queen is actually coming to the city, and they're really serious about it this time, you guys.
Yes, the Cone Capital of the World has threatened to breach our shores before, but according to Grub Street, they were derailed by Hurricane Sandy. It appears, though, that Blizzards are pretty resilient, and the city's first Dairy Queen is set to open at the Staten Island Ferry's St. George terminal by Memorial Day.
And Manhattan's next: the company plans to open a second location in Times Square. "Our goal is to have that one open by late November or early December," a spokesperson told Grub Street. And so, yet another chain from the rest of America heads our way, and it's not even an In-N-Out; on the other hand, though, we have to admit we'd take DQ's Caramel Fudge Sundae over self-serve fro-yo any day.
