LSDM Walkers.

Ducks hoping ice melts? Don't they fly south? And where are the girls? 4 of 5 of these ducks were Mallards.

First time.

TIMDT and Mwah (sic) spurred to dine at Kimi's because of conversation with one of the sous chefs whom we met on the Sugarhouse street car a few weeks ago.

Lunch special: pork schnitzel, hold gravy, quite good. Flavorful, lumpy mashed potatoes, and perfectly cooked snow peas. I'd go back for it. Timely service.

Downers: charge for iced tea refill after $4 charge for original glass. Windows need cleaning.

This place deserves another chance...nice ambiance, interesting menu...maybe try dinner sometime. — at Kimi's Chop & Oyster House.

Above: Giant's ice cream cone. Sugarhouse, Salt Lake City, UT. 14 November 2018.

Walking in Sugarhouse. 5000 steps. TIMDT at nearby Nordstrom Rack and Barnes and Noble, where we met later.

Iconic "sculpture" for geezer Utahns. Ice cream manufacturer, Snelgroves, and parlor here from 1926 to 1990.

Nestle now owns manufacturing facility to make Dreyers brand ice cream. Ice cream parlor long since closed.

Old, giant cone kept up as a historic land mark.

Hat tip: Ray Croc (in distance, in image). — at Snelgrove Ice Cream Co.
