Places to Eat: Boston's JP LicksJanuary 03, 2008 | 10:11AM

By Diana McClure: Over the years I’ve slowed down my pursuit of decadently scrumptious food items in favor of a healthier diet. But, there is one item I always indulge (even in wintertime), black raspberry ice cream with Reese’s peanut butter cups topping, at Boston’s best ice cream spot, JP Licks. Locally owned and operated, this homemade ice cream haven has been around for decades. Across the board it’s Boston’s best. I’ve never understood why other cities don’t jump on the bandwagon and up their ice cream game. And, for the record, Häagen-Dazs ain’t got nothin’ on the Licks. With an artistic array of flavors from sweet cream, gingersnap molasses and coquito, to all the traditional favorites, you can’t go wrong – winter, spring, summer, or fall.
