USA Today, a zine distributed for free in hotels and airports across America by a guerilla army of wage slaves, has declared 5-month-old Mr. & Mrs. Miscellaneous to be the most bomb-ass ice cream in all of California:
Finally, a full-on, sit-down ice cream parlor in San Francisco a simple, soaring space in the up-and-coming Dogpatch neighborhood. Ian Flores and wife Annabelle Topacio, aka Mr. & Mrs. Miscellaneous, do 10 flavors a day, delicate hand-rolled cones, and a killer frozen fudge pop served stickless on a biodegradable plate. 699 22nd St.; 415-970-0750
Not sure how in a state of 39 million people some place that just opened could be the place to get ice cream. Hell, I didn't even know this place existed until the other day when I went to 3rd to buy a 40 to chug while enjoying a Toxic Beach bumfire. The Yelppies go at length to compare this place to Humphry Slocombe, which we all know isn't ice cream, but two scopes of tortured Straus base dumped into an otherwise edible waffle cone. That alone makes me want to jump headfirst into a bathtub full of Hood, but I guess I should withhold my judgment until I eat enough of this stuff to get type II diabetes. After all, it's the best.

Wow, what crawled up your naughty bits and died?! Or is the leftover taste of MissionMission stuck in your throat? First, they make their own base, unlike Bi-Rite and Jasper Slo-err, Humphrey Slocombe. Second, they don’t serve flavors Salmon Wasabe or Turkey Casarole. They’re just two people trying to get by and make some killer ice cream in the process. They are hardly to blame for USA Today bestowing the top spot on them.
pretty sure I referred to Slocombe has the shop that butchers Straus base, not Mr + Mrs. Believe you me, I love ice cream and haven’t tried this place yet, I’m just hella skeptical of a place that numerous people compare to Slocombe.
