[url=http://www.lthforum.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3602&st=0&sk=t&sd=a]Here[/url] is a great thread on ice cream in Chicago. I started reading through it to help you figure out if it was Colonial or another name, but thought I'd pass it along in hopes it might help you remember. In any case, it's a fun read!

Chipast, forgot to mention that I contacted Colonial (the outfit that's been in Chicago for 100 years) to ask them if they had a presence downtown or if they knew of another Colonial that existed at Fullerton and Southport. You may have already figured it out, but I enjoy the hunt anyway B)
