Hi, I'm Chris Traynor, a retail reporter at the State Newspaper.
We're here today at Zesto of West Columbia on 12th Street.
You know it, they have the iconic chocolate dip cone
in the sky right outside here.
And that's what we're here to try today.
For 77 years, this restaurant has been a mainstay in West Columbia.
Now we're getting ready to go try what I would call their classic.
Come check it out.
I don't know what it is.
come up you make it a little pointed tip at the top
and then what you do is you'll take it over
you dip it upside down in the dip pull it up don't leave it
in there too long because it's too hot
pull it up and then when you pull it up it'll drip let it drip
and then you have a masterpiece
of the Zest-O-Cone. We have a dipped cone
a chocolate dipped cone uh the icon of Zest-O-West
West Columbia, they've just made it in the kitchen there.
We're about to try it.
