I want a screamer!
 

No, not like my second g/f, LOL.


I'm talking about ice cream and slushie. I only know of two places (I live a sheltered life) that make it. One in Bradner (Abbotsford) and one in Walnut Grove (Langley). I'm sure there are more places out there. I live in North Burnaby, so anywhere in Burnaby or Vancouver would be great. And no, I don't do Richmond.

I tried making one myself with slurpee and mcds icecream.. its just not the same..

theres a corner store in Surrey(Newton) that has them 64th and 144th that has them.

there's supposedly a machine at chevron or husky at the intersection of King Ed and Oak. I read it on a blog a while back so i can't say for sure.

That actually sounds delicious..

And here I was, about to post some screamer.gif's

So people know what screamers are? Awesome. I thought they were like hard to find.

King Ed and Oak, eh? Kind of far, but on a hot summer day, they are great........ brain freeze city.

OMG!!!! I remember these! They were amazing! Although, I think the place you're referring to in Walnut Grove, Red Rooster's (and various other names) is long gone. That's where I used to get mine at when I walked home from school.

Where's this place in Bradner? I live in Abby and I feel this information falls under the "need to know" category.

never been there, but i heard blundell/garden city.

you should do richmond. they sell screamers at danny's market :\

Right here...

Yeah, Red Roosters is history. Too bad.

Bradner General Store, of course. Downtown Bradner is like....... come to think of it, the general store is downtown Bradner. I came upon the place when I attended the Bradner Flower Show and May Day celebration. The store is the heart of Bradner. It is right where the railroad crosses Bradner Road. The general store is a very interesting place. Not quite Corner gas, but it does have a pair of pumps, post office, candies galore, and a coffee shop (probably the world's smallest).

Being from Abby, you must know about Clayburn Village. That candy store there is out of this world.

Danny's Market in Richmond!! and Baguette Time on Davie I think? Can't go wrong with an orange Crush screamer. Tastes just like a creamsicle.

AVOID the King Ed one. Disgusting. I wouldn't even call what they have "ice cream"

I never knew such food item existed. Now I must try one.... later when it's warmer outside.

I hear ya. Nothing worse than a screamer not done right.


For those who don't know about screamers, it's soft serve combined with slushie. A good one is a piece of art. Some start with a very small layer of soft serve at the bottom, then a bit of slushie, then another layer of soft serve. The soft serve has to be the right consistency.

If and when I win the lottery, the first thing I buy is a slushie machine and a soft serve machine. Screamers anytime I want. Oh, then I'd buy a real pizza oven.

And.......... just for my buddy there in one of the previous posts, a cotton candy machine. LOL.

Hmm.. ok, I'm not very familiar with the Bradner area but I have a feeling I will be veeeeeery soon! :D

And yes, the Clayburn Village candy shop is amazing! Totally old school candies.

used to live 1-minute drive away from danny's. damn those screamers were good.... especially with their fresh baked bread sticks and pizza.. mmm

but i believe they switched owners and the last time i had their screamer, the ice cream was shit. Icecream wasnt smooth and creamy at all like it used to be and had little bits and chunks. fucking gross. Tried getting a refund and the guy refused. I even told him to try it from the machine himself and he refused. that motherfucker.. that was the last time i had a screamer.....

Danny's in richmond. its like garden city and something, blundell right?

^francis

do you guys have a Canadian Tire with a gas station anywhere down there? the Canadian Tire in Kelowna has a gas station and they have THE BEST screamers there

DOOD@! trust me i've searched EVERYWHERE in this f'ing city...
the place in richmond is bunk!

if you guys want THE BEST screamers head down to the okanagan.
The cdn tire in kelowna has em so you can make em yourself...also penticton...and theres a little place in oliver where they make em with hard ice cream...worth the 4-5hr drive IMO!

pretty dissapointing to know that the ones at danny market are now crap... goodbye highschool memories of getting screamers during lunch :lol

I'm going to give a screamer a try once people figured out some good places around here, abbotsford and langley are definitely too far for me lol

what really?

nooooooooooooooo :cry::cry::cry:

I haven't got one for a while...
please do explain

^ well, reading from the previous posts it seems the quality has decreased quite a bit

and yeah I remember getting one a year ago and the ice cream seemed kind of lumpy, now that people mentioned it. It won't stop me from getting one on the warm summer days when I'm in the area, though.
