Sorry to say this but had the gelato. Can't compare to Braum's ice cream for my tastes. Love Braums. Gelato was so-so.

How can you compare gelato to ice cream? They're hardly the same thing...

Maybe your tastes aren't discerning. I have a hard time believing you went to Il Dolce. The gelato there is crazy good. It's lower in fat and much more flavor than regular ice cream, and IDG has some really gormet flavors that vary daily. We are regulars and I want ths place to prosper. Good work deserves good props and profits.

Umm...what happened to the delete post option?

its pointless to argue over personal opinions since a basis for concrete facts to support such individual preferences can never be substantiated.

Maybe...but also lacking in thoughtfulness to try and degrade someone's business in this forum...particularly when they do such a good job.

They didn't like it. They have the right to say they didn't like it just like you have the right to say you did. If you don't agree with something, that doesn't mean they can't voice their opinion.

[MsDarkstar]

Yeah, I don't think they were intentionally trying to "degrade" someone's business in this forum. Their personal opinion is that they thought the gelato was only so-so, and that they prefer Braum's. They clearly state that it's "not to their taste" - that's very different than saying it's bad in general & knocking the business.

I like Il Dolce AND Braum's...just depends on what I'm in the mood for. My nephew & I have shared some Il Dolce from the same container, and while I thought it was spectacular he didn't care for it. Does that make it bad? Nope, it just means that he personally didn't care for it.

my goodness, break out the fistacuffs for someone not liking gelato.. to me i like taco mayo over taco bell...please no please no dont hit me i take it back take it back..good gosh people common.. i didnt buisness get bashed just because someone didnt like thre dessert

I just find this discussion laughable. Then again we live in a society where people just cannot wrap minds around the idea that other people like the things they hate and hate the things they like.

Can you imagine how boring the world would be if we all liked the same things and had the same opinions. Eventually people would quit talking to each other out of boredom.

I also think its funny when people always assume that "doesn't like" means the same as "hate" (this is not a dig on you or your post; I agree with you). Even very slight difference of opinion seem to often explode for no reason.

So, uh, yay new Braum's!

Braum's re-opened today

[MonkeesFan]

To anybody who went to the new Braums, how did it look?

[cdbthunder]

Yeah it is finally open ! I was going to tell you how it looks but my wife went through the drive-thru. I'll get back with you on that gotta go before my food gets cold.

Never mind, I just went there, it is much better than the old one, very classy looking

[Charlie40]

I like the older Braums better they have a more country feel to them.

[braums manager]

it doesnt get any better than this

Sounds good. Braum's manager, switching topics - is there a chance a Braum's fresh market will come to downtown?

Nooooooooooo. Many of us downtowners don't want it downtown Steve. Don't encourage them. They also made it clear they weren't ready for an Urban Market, and it's clear Braum's doesn't have the mentality. The Braums on Classen does just fine for us downtowners.

i was floored when i recently went to Braums and tried to order a smoothie. Apparently Braums doesnt have smoothies listed anywhere on their menu board and the idea of mixing yogurt with fresh fruit hasnt crossed into the mindsets yet of this corporate dairy giant. they are missing potential revenue, not just mine.

As shameful as it is to admit this, if Braum's didn't have that damnable blue birthday cake ice cream, there would never be a reason to go in one.

In Norman, there's Passionberri and Rusty's. I only go to Braum's when the urge for sickly sweet, robin's egg blue ice cream demands to be assuaged and will accept no substitutes.

Their business model seems a bit Donny and Marie, like they can't quite decide what they want to be. (I'm a little bit ice cream shop, I'm a little bit grocery store, with the rest folded into a burger joint).

i cant answer that question i have no idea

If you'd start selling milk through the drive-through again, it would.
