Christina's will draw you in with their ever-changing menu of crazy flavors -- avacado, sweet corn, red bean? Yeah, really. But does anyone really try those?

A place trying to be authentic but with staff who don't have a clue as to what they are serving - very embarrassing!!! I guess the ice cream was ok, but nothing exceptional and I can't get over the fact about the staff - sorry! more
