Before the grandkids arrived home from school on Friday afternoon I drove across the Mississippi River into Iowa just so I could have a hot fudge sundae at Lagomarcino’s in Davenport.

My daughter introduced me to Lago’s when she first moved to the quad cities (Moline, Davenport, Bettendorf, Rock Island) several years ago, insisting that they served the best hot fudge sundaes in the known universe. After my first taste I agreed with her.

What makes these hot fudge sundaes so special? Well, Lago’s makes their own ice cream and their own hot fudge. And unlike other places where the sauce has already cooled atop the ice cream, at Lago’s the fudge is served separately and is still hot when it arrives at the table. Yum!

I portioned it out little by little and the last drop of fudge was still nice and hot, and as absolutely delicious as the first! I savored every bite knowing it will be a while before I get another of these treats since I’m heading towards home on Sunday morning.
Peace, people!
Oh MY. Delish xx

That’s really great. When my wife and I were growing up outside of Detroit in the 60’s and 70’s there was a wonderful place called Sander’s that had hot fudge sundaes like Lago’s. They’re no longer around, but it’s nice to know that kind of place is still around in middle America. Great post, Leslie. – Marty

Anyone who serves the fudge sauce separately is a winner…

I’d never had it served that way until my daughter moved to the quad cities. It is the bomb.
