Magnolia Flavor House on Dry-Run (Augugst 2012)
Do you still remember the Magnolia Ice Cream House along Aurora Boulevard?
If it doesn’t ring a bell to you, you might have been too young or were not even born yet in Manila during the 1990’s when the Magnolia Ice Cream parlor was an iconic landmark for families and ice cream lovers. It was the place to be when you talk about banana splits, parfaits, and special ice cream concoctions such as the peach melba sundae.
With the opening of Robinsons’ newest mall – Robinsons Magnolia – in the very same spot where the old Magnolia Ice Cream House once stood, the new Magnolia Ice Cream House was born. The mall itself was named Robninsons Magnolia because of this nostalgic history. It’s now called the Magnolia Flavor House.
New Magnolia Ice Cream House beside Starbucks
The new Magnolia Ice Cream House – the Magnolia Flavor House -Â is located in the garden area right beside a Starbucks coffee shop under construction and not within the mall premises.
They were in dry-run last month when we visited the ice cream parlor but I believe the menu selection now would have increased.
Here are some photos of the new Magnolia Ice Cream House in Robinsons Magnolia at night.
