One of DTLA's coolest settings is now one of the sweetest spots to beat the heat. All August long, the NoMad hotel is flipping its coffee bar into a gourmet scoop shop with tons of ice cream—including the return of their beloved Milk & Honey ice cream sandwiches for the kickoff, August 2 (oh yeah, they're back).
From noon to 6pm every Wednesday through Sunday, stop by the ground-floor, gold-and-mirrored coffee shop for specialty scoops, shakes, floats or affogatos (made with either cold brew or espresso) from executive pastry sous chef Henry Molina.
Look for rotating flavors like a classic strawberry, featuring Harry’s Berries from the Hollywood Farmer’s Market; a vegan Valrhona dark chocolate; mint chocolate chip with fresh mint and chocolate ganache; lemon cookie; rainbow sherbert that involves mango, strawberry, coconut and lime; and a summery corn ice cream with blueberry compote and honey-butter cornbread crumble. Good thing you don't need to choose just one.
