During my visit in Davao, I saw a bunch of people lining up in Roxas Night Market. I thought there was kind of show or something. I was a bit curious and asked our driver of what's going on "there"? he said, ah nagalinya na sila ug Mang Danny's iceream maam! (there were lining for for Mang Danny's icecream. He started saying that Mang Danny's has been an iconic figure in the Roxas Night Market in Davao City and people are lining up for hours. Customers usually start to fall in line by 6 p.m. It's an overnight sensation but who in the world would ever line up for three to four hours for a cone of ice cream? This is probably one of the unusual and intriguing scenarios one can witness a night market on Roxas avenue in Davao City. To feed my curiosity, I told my fiance that we should pay Mang Danny a visit and try his icecream. My fiance, being the most awesome man that he is (plus he knows the level of tantrums I make when I don't get what I want... lol)
What made his ice cream special?
According to him, there is nothing special in his ice cream. It was just all ordinary products he blends in a right amount. What he ensures is that, milk should be given an importance and must be added without thrift upon making the ice cream. People preferred Mang Danny’s dirty ice cream than any other. To them, the taste is different and delicious. Flavors comes with durian,mango, chocolate and strawberry.
For me, THE ICECREAM WAS JUST FANTASTIC! Why fantastic? I couldn't really describe it but I hope that this would do a bit justice - Mang Danny's icecream was definitely the creamiest dirty icecream I have ever tasted. Period. It has the same ice cream feels when eating Nestle and Selecta cupped ice creams, not all dirty ice creams can pull that off. It is how Icecream should definitely taste like! And for 25 pesos (That time) the effort of lining up for a long period of time was worth it... WORTH IT. Dirty ice cream being a streetfood was leveled up a notch higher.
Roxas Night Market is open every night from 6pm and up... in front of Ateneo de Davao University along Roxas Area, Davao City.

If that is as good as Dan Eric's, then I'll go for it. They both have the same name so I think it must be good. :D
