October 13, 2015 - The Concord Insider
There will be cooking demos that turn into samples and samples just for eating. But the star of this night is the top slider competition. Arnie’s Place will look to repeat as champion, busting out a smoked pulled chicken this year after grabbing first place with smoked sausage a year ago.

Making homemade ice cream is a way of life at Arnie’s Place
April 28, 2015 - The Concord Insider
by Tim Goodwin When it comes to ice cream, there are really no rules. If you want a fruity taste or even fruit mixed in, there’s plenty of flavors to choose from. Chocolate chips, nuts, cookies and candy also make nice additions to the frozen treat. But if you want the classics – vanilla, chocolate and strawberry – that’s fine, as well. You might be called boring, but at least you’ll have dessert to ease the pain. Really, it all comes down to what makes your tummy the happiest. There are plenty of places to pick up a cone or sundae in the city, but if you want read more |

I’ve eaten a lot of ice cream in my life. Scoops, shakes, flurries, freezes, parfaits and sundaes – I’ve had ’em all. From Cherry Garcia to Quarterback Crunch, endless slices of Jubilee Rolls and arsenals of rocket pops, I’ve spent a good portion of my life consuming ice cream and frozen yogurt in all forms, including gelato and iced milk – even soy ice cream in a regrettable moment of existential doubt. But I’ve never felt satisfied. These bottomless bowls, these countless cones – all filled with flavors of someone else’s choosing. When would it be my time? When could I choose what I want? When can I scream for my ice cream? read more

June 28, 2014 - The Boston Globe
By Patricia Harris CONCORD, N.H. — When you step to the counter to place an order at Arnie’s Place, be sure to ask the invariably cheerful clerk to leave your tab open. Once you have eaten your meal, you will surely want to return for ice cream. Most casual takeout spots have one specialty — hot dogs, for instance — but Arnie’s has three: juicy burgers, tangy barbecue, and creamy homemade ice cream. “The pulled pork sandwich is the most popular,” Grace Orzechowski told us as we perused the menu. “We smoke the pork overnight and pull it every morning.” read more |

July 11, 2013 - The Concord Monitor
