This is the best ice cream in Boston PERIOD. I did a taste test of my own to prove it. I ordered chocolate chip with hot fudge sauce at both Toscanini's and JP Licks. With Toscanini's, the ice cream was smooth, creamy, with a great undertone of vanilla. The chocolate chips were large(but not too large)and flavorful. The sauce had just the right consistency(not too thick/thin) and had a great, deep chocolatey taste. At the ""#1"" place, JP Licks, the ice cream had an overwhelmingly boring cream taste-that's it-cream-no flavoring. And the chocolate chips were too small to make an impact on my taste buds. The chocolate sauce tasted like something store-bought-one of those thick caramel-like chocolate sauces. So be forewarned, if you're an ice cream lover, as I am, I highly recommend you skip what other's deem #1, and head for Toscanini's
