Recently I had the opportunity to go to Victoria BC. Living in Vancouver, Victoria is just a short ferry ride away.
During
our stay we searched for a place for dinner one night. Not know the
city, we drove around looking for a restaurant. We came across Smoken
Bones. The restaurant passed our test of a restaurant actually having
customers! At 5:30 PM the restaurant was hopping. We knew it was good.
We had a great meal.
Then
it came time to decide on dessert. We were full but noticed Bacon Ice
Cream in the menu. We hummed and hawed and decided that we were not
going to have any dessert. When our server returned she asked us for our
order. We explained that dessert was not in the cards for us that night
but asked about the bacon ice cream.
Our server explained it was really great! We declined. Then our server said she would bring us a taste! WOW.

Smoken Bones - Bacon Ice Cream |
The Ice Cream was really great. Vanilla Ice Cream coated with finely
crumbled bacon and probably pork cracklings. WOW! A great blend of sweet & salty. Now to figure out when to have this at home.
