Tucker’s Place is one of those spots, and no matter if you walk into its original Soulard location, or its West County or South County restaurants, the experience is the same.

A new ice cream shop is coming soon to Olivette. Located at 9538 Olive Blvd., Dohmo will offer ice cream made in a number of flavors and ingredient combinations. The shop, which is slated to launch next weekend, will offer ice cream that is made to order for each customer, according to their preferences, due in part to special machines that mix ingredients right into the ice cream base.
