With an address on hip Upper King, this spacious and smartly designed scoop shop has a lot going for it even before the massive menu of mouth-watering flavors, sauces, sprinkles, waffle wedges, and “gravels” that are anything but vanilla. Whether you take a cone or a cup, resist that hankering for salted caramel and dip into some Southern specials—such as Whiskey and Pecans and Charleston Sweet Cream with Rum Molasses and Peanuts—created just for us, says a gal behind the counter, ’cause “down here we’re sweet as cream and slow as molasses.” 501 King St., (843) 212-5113, www.jenis.com
