Yuki is a hidden gem in the Albertsons plaza off of Durango. I drove by it a few times when it first opened and thought it was just another shave ice place....then one day when I went to mail off some packages at the nearby postal place, I notice it actually said SHAVED SNOW! Not the same as shave ice btw.
I had recently experienced shaved snow while on a trip to Hawaii and loved it!!! I love how the texture goes from light and fluffy snow to smooth and creamy ice cream. It's like a beautiful journey through an exotic ice cream land
They also offer Thrifty brand ice cream which I had never had before, but I tried out the birthday cake and animal cracker and loved them both. My kids like getting the cotton candy and bubble gum flavors.
They also offer this exclusive item called Creamy Bun. But we affectionately call them ice cream donuts. You take a whole donut (think unfilled jelly donut type) then cut it in half, scoop your favorite Thrifty ice cream flavor on half, top it off with something crunchy ( my favorite is fruity pebbles) and seal the too back on with some magical ice cream donut machine...VIOLA! You've got warm donutty outside and cold creamy crunchy goodness inside!! MIND.BLOWN
You have to try it!! You'll be sad if you don't.
