matcha ice cream & veggie option

hi!! thank you for the addition of matcha ice cream the other night, it was delish and wondering if it could be included in the rotation from now on? also… what are the chances heart of palm could be added to the deli section 🙂 u guys are the best!

Many thanks for your note! I’m so glad you enjoyed the matcha ice cream; we’ll definitely make sure it makes more frequent appearances during special events. I’ll have to pass on the hearts of palm for now, but happy to revisit at a later date!

Best,

Michael”
