Zora Dora's Paletarias Main Street Beacon

This place is the best. Steve the chef (mad scientist of ice cream) is really smart guy to come up with the flavors such as avocado, beet, roasted banana with saffron, mint cucumber...he's like willy wonka of ice cream. He and his wife run the shop and have a really nice vibe. Kid friendly dog friendly and new york city friendly. Took my city friends in & they went nuts.
The ice cream comes in pop form like the Mexican street Popsicles called paletas or there are some sandwiches like lemon thyme on the chocolate cookie or beet on a flax cookie. They sound weird but they don't taste it.
They also have sorbets and vegan ice cream.
The one bad thing but not really bad (cause they use local and seasonal items) is there limited runs on some like the mojito. They also have a double chocolate sandwich with valrhona chocolate now gone... so bring your cooler and stock up.
