Among all the things Chippewa Valley-ians love, dessert and ice cream rank high. After a yummy meal, swing by Ramone’s Ice Cream Parlor (502 Galloway St., Eau Claire) for a large waffle cone heaping with your favorite flavors. If ice cream for breakfast is more your style, have an ice cream-topped waffle with a warm coffee drink at Olson’s Ice Cream and Deli (80 S. Barstow St., Eau Claire; 611 N. Bridge St., Chippewa Falls). While best known for its steaks, Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse (4751 Owen Ayres Court, Eau Claire) doesn’t skimp on dessert with a host of decadent selections, such as tiramisu and limoncello cake. – Kellie Williams
