Finally, a great ice cream spot is within just a few miles of campus: D’Lites. Located on Glen Cove Road in Greenvale, D’lites serves a variety of rotating flavors, including the traditional chocolate and vanilla, as well as their unique flavors such as cinnamon crumb cake, chocolate sno-ball, peanut brittle and, my personal favorite, rice pudding. For those who have made the switch to frozen yogurt, do not be fooled by the term “ice cream,” as D’lites products are low in sugar, carbs, sodium, fat, and calories and are also gluten free and kosher. On their website, they explain how it is not considered yogurt because their products contain “no live cultures,” and they use skim milk. Although it is still ice cream, you won’t feel as guilty as you would from having an ice cream cone elsewhere. The first time I tried D’lites, I was hooked! What strikes me the most is how you don’t get the bloated feeling that you sometimes get after eating regular ice cream. The atmosphere in D’lites also adds to the experience, with its modern décor and ambience. They offer several toppings to add to your choice of flavor, as well as shakes, sundaes, and ice cream sandwiches. They are also giving a 15% discount for students at C.W. Post. Whether you are looking for a place to meet up with friends during common hour or simply craving ice cream, this is the perfect spot to go. Dlite’s is open Monday through Thursday from noon-10 p.m., Friday and Saturday noon-11 p.m., and Sunday noon-9 p.m.
