  1. Carlos H. Marin REVIEW:

    This is a recipe that was born in Mexico City. The name of the Restaurant was Los Comerciales and we iniciated this fabulous dessert. Mr Abel Garcia was the manager and we came to California and introduced the Deep Fried Ice Cream with the chain of El Torito Restaurants. The concept was called "Who song and Larry's Cantina". The firts place of this theme, in La Jolla California. Sincerely, I am glad someone has posted the recipe for everyone to enjoy. It is great!! Congratulations I recommend it to anyone. Be careful when you do the Deep Frying.
