Starr's Ice Cream
Does anyone remember Starr's Ice Cream on the southwest corner of Fresno Street and Clinton Avenue? A question from Cathy Gorham of Fresno about her favorite ice cream parlor has me stumped.
Gorham remembers going there with her sister in the 1960s until about the late 1970s, but she wonders how they made their ice cream and when the shop closed. "I would love to know their recipe for the chocolate fudge and lemon ice creams," Gorham wrote in an e-mail. She remembers the shop also made ice cream molds for special occasions.
Starr’s was owned by Robert W. Starr, who died in 1974, and then by his son, Robert W. Starr Jr., who died in 1998. At one time they had other locations, maybe on Bullard, Blackstone and Ashlan avenues.
If you remember Starr's Ice Cream, please share your memories.
