Jake’s Dixie Roadhouse in Waltham will soon add candied bacon ice cream to its menu, reports Go To It. Owner Don Yovicsin confirms, telling us that the sweet stuff will be on the menu next week. “It’s a collaboration with Nick Pappas of Lizzy’s Ice Cream. He uses a really good heavy cream, so it’s a very dense ice cream, and he has great maple. I went out to the market and bought the best bacon I could find - Nieman Ranch center cut - and candied it with light brown sugar.” But that’s not all: “Next week, we’ll also be adding a candied bacon chocolate chunk cookie.” Get excited!
