![]() ![]() The Forest Park-based roastery and coffee chain is also retaining Buzz Café staff. “And I feel successful in that in many ways.”Īs the new owner, Kribi plans to honor Buzz Café and what it means to its loyal customers, with some minor tweaks, such as serving Kribi coffee, and updating the machinery. “When I opened the café, it was my opportunity to lift up southeast Oak Park,” she said. At the time of the café’s opening, that section of Oak Park was widely undervalued, with a reputation for being crime-ridden now it is one of the most popular neighborhoods in the village, according to Maychruk. Okay, I have nothing else to say.Buzz Café has become an anchor in the Oak Park Arts District, which Maychruk helped to grow into a destination location, not just for Oak Park residents but in neighboring communities as well. I remember Dubba saying scoop shops tend to sell their mix ins so I think I might have to go buy a bag of these. They're just so addicting and full of flavor, it's ridiculous. They might also be one of my favorite Ben & Jerry's mix ins. On Second Scoop: I couldn't help myself and needed to have some more ccbbb with my breakfast this morning. Now can I get some Butter Pecan in pints next year? Great job Ben & Jerry's on successfully transitioning another scoop shop exclusive flavor into pints. Now did it give me a buzz buzz buzz? I'm not sure but that doesn't matter because my taste buds sure got one. I might even go so far as to say that this may be my new favorite coffee flavor. The coffee ice cream and espresso chunks just work in perfect harmony to produce a very bold flavor profile. I find myself loving the contrast in the flavors here. Ben & Jerry's doesn't mess around so they let their coffee beans shine through in this application. It's robust and not overly sweet like most coffee flavors tend to be. The base coffee ice cream is exactly the same as you find in Coffee Heath Bar Crunch. These chunks add a pleasant thud every time you bite into one which is very often seeing as they're everywhere. These tiles are full of flavor and aren't for the people who like to drown their coffee with chocolate. I kid you not, I was that eager to finally get my hands on a "new" Ben & Jerry's flavor. I literally swiped it from his hands and ran to the self-checkout. I didn't even let the employee put the pint in the freezer. That is until earlier today when I saw that they were in the act of stocking cccbb again. After going to the store multiple times over the next couple of weeks I started to lose hope. This seemed understandable, so I convinced myself it wouldn't be more than a few days until it was back on the shelf. Management wanted them to unload those products before selling the new stuff. ![]() After finding an employee I was told that they had found some leftover inventory from the flavor that was on clearance to make room for ccbbb. Upon returning to the store, I noticed ccbbb was nowhere to be found. I decided to forgo purchasing it and then stop back a few days later. I realized I left my insulated bag at home and didn't know how long it would take me to get the pint to my freezer. I knew Dubba would want to try the mint cookie so I was contemplating picking up Coffee, Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz! (yeah I'm not typing that out anymore). I couldn't believe my eyes when I spotted two of the new Ben & Jerry's flavors in the case. I had stopped at a grocery store after classes to grab myself some lunch and decided to wander the ice cream aisle while my order was being completed. It all started on a windy day back in late February. ![]() Before we begin this review I have a story to tell you about finding this flavor.
