Next door to my station, a former sandwich shop has been turning into something else. Today it's got its pink-and-black fascia up. It's called "Afters", and helpfully lists what it will purvey:

Coffee
Gelato
Crepes
Frozen yogurt
Cold stone
Waffles

Err.... a nice cold stone for afters, anyone?

(I'm familiar with places advertising "hot stone" pizzas or steaks, but I have absolutely no idea what they mean here...)

Your Honour, I understand the term to mean a method of preparing ice-cream desserts in which confectionery that might under some circumstances be referred to as "toppings" is mixed in with the ice-cream upon the refrigerated earthenware of the title, in order that it might be presented with uniform consistency throughout.

On my way to work I noticed a coffee shop with a sign outside that said "Yes, we are just a coffee shop now :)" I have no idea what they were before.
