Free Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream in Tustin Today!
04.12.11
Ben & Jerry’s is handing out free ice cream cones today from noon to 8 p.m. at all of its Scoop Shops! In Orange County, this means you can go to Ben & Jerry’s at the District at Tustin Legacy. Stop in for a free scoop of a longtime favorite or discover a new flavor, like Late Night Snack, with fair trade vanilla bean ice cream with a salty caramel swirl and fudge covered potato chip clusters; Bonnaroo Buzz: light coffee and malt ice creams with whiskey caramel swirls and English toffee pieces; and our personal favorite, Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream: (pictured above) vanilla ice cream with fudge covered waffle cone pieces and a caramel swirl.
The event will also feature live music, balloon art and face painting.
Ben & Jerry’s at 2459 Park Ave. in Tustin. 714.258.0808.

Dessert First at Sushi Koto!

In this case, it’s best to order dessert first! Sushi Koto in Fountain Valley is offering a special dessert menu through May 6, with all proceeds going UNICEF to help aide the Japan Earthquake & Tsunami Relief Fund.
The selection includes homemade Japanese custard puddings like hoji cha tea, matcha green tea, yuzu fruit, (kabocha) pumpkin, and (ninjin) carrot. Each dessert costs $3.75.
Also, every Friday from 6 to 9:30 p.m. there will be live performances by SouLandscape, a local piano and vocals duo. Sushi Koto offers traditional dishes to give Japanese families a sense of home, and gives new diners an opportunity to taste the wonders of Japanese cuisine.
