Free ice cream!

Meet the Cooking Channel's Ben Sargent as he gives out scoops of Bassetts at Reading Terminal Market.

Ben Sargent (the so-called Brooklyn Chowder Surfer and star of the Cooking Channel's Hook Line & Dinner show) will stop at Reading Terminal Market from noon to 5 p.m. Wednesday, July 27 as the Cooking Channel marks its anniversary by giving away ice cream. (There will be a private lunchtime giveaway on Thursday for Comcast employees; they get special treatment because Comcast carries the Cooking Channel and Food Network.)

Bassetts is the ice cream of choice.

Sargent also will host a cooking class from 8 to 9 p.m. July 29 at Harrah's in Atlantic City as part of the Atlantic City Food & Wine Festival.
