Sugar Hill Creamery

To celebrate the “sweet life,” husband-wife team Nick Larsen (Blue Hill, Telepan) and Petrushka Bazin Larsen opened a community-minded ice cream parlor in their neighborhood of Mount Morris Park District in Harlem. The duo purveys traditional homemade scoops—vanilla, chocolate—along with more creative flavors like soursop (Caribbean fruit), sweet-corn jalapeño and PB&J. Additional treats include apricot–passion-fruit push pops, honey-and-ginger beer floats and black-forest ice cream sandwiches. The bright shop is decked out in custom-made wood-herringbone countertops, hexagonal blue-and-white penny tiles and a gallery by artist Raúl Ayala showcasing rotating portraits of local neighbors.
