Pregnant women may find themselves overjoyed at the idea of the two most common cravings — pickles and ice cream — combined. Head to the Upper West Side’s Lucky Pickle Dumpling Co., where you can get a pickle flavored soft-serve ice cream for a mere $5 if you’re feeling adventurous. The restaurant itself is a fast food place with seats for you and fourteen other epicureans living on the edge.
The siren call for food Instagrammers has been sounded. This is your opportunity to pose gleefully with the smooth, creamy, acidic taste test that proves no food is outside of your comfort zone. Live your best pickle-oriented lifestyle as you lick the tip of that green culinary barometer.
Jacob Hadjigeorgis, of Jacob’s Pickle and Maison Pickle, is on a mission to remind all New Yorkers of the torrid love affair they once had with the pickle. Has the time come to revive that love affair? Get out of the way, we’re hungry and we’re cruising for that sour, creamy taste of a pickle flavored soft-serve.
Other menu offerings include sriracha pickle slaw and a pickle cowboy t-shirt.

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
