Lulu Sweet Apothecary with Heather Mills

Sharing a thick chocolate milk shake using two old-fashioned metal straws with Heather Mills is an experience for all time, and a heck of a lot of fun. Lula's Sweet Apothecary in the East Village is the perfect place on any day for a trip back in time for a great treat. The store is tiny and the atmosphere is unique for current fashion made very special by owners Blythe Boyd and Derek Hackett. They make daily rotating flavors. I always seem to want their Chocolate Peanut Butter. But, I should try others, especially the Cake Batter Soft Serve! If you are vegan or lactose intolerant you are in luck. If you are not, you are still in luck. The mostly cashew-based ice creams suits all tastes, and are so very, very smooth and creamy.

Heather is training for the Paralympics Downhill, running a great restaurant, VBites, in England, supporting a free-to-children one in the Bronx, launching a uniquely-designed vegan cookbook, Love Bites, owning The Redwood Co., an alternative to meat, fish and cheese products, and so many other projects that I think she needed a break at Lula's. With the weather getting better in New York it is a perfect break for anyone. But, if you go, know that one visit will never be enough.
