A lot of patrons frequent Sloan's (112 Clematis St., West Palm Beach, 561-833-3335) for its roughly 30 flavors of gourmet ice cream. Some like to check out the four shades of sorbet, the three types of yogurt, or the soup of the day. And a few even go for the made-to-order crepes.

So if the urge hits while you're there, don't panic: The only goods on display are the ones in the cases.
