Favorite flavor: Pistachio. “[Van Leeuwen’s is] the best pistachio I’ve ever had — it’s so creamy — the pistachios are imported from Sicily! I’m not a vanilla kinda guy — I [am] more eccentric, in life and in ice cream.”

Celeb encounter: “I served Brooke Shields once — she was really nice and she tips!”

Flirtiest moments: “A few people come in just to see me. I’ve definitely gotten a few numbers. Someone told me he had an ice cream crush on me.”
