I know what a lot of people think when they hear about "shaved ice" - they think snow cones from the festival with crunchy ice. An unsophisticated flavor - just ice mixed with syrup honestly.
SnowFlake Shavery, as it is now called, does not do this at all. Their ice is literally INFUSED with flavor. This was the first time (since in the truck I couldn't see it) I got to see them pull out the huge chunk of ice that was entirely colored by the flavor of the ingredients involved. To get a different flavor, that block then needs to get pulled out and replaced with a different one.
The result is a fluffy concoction that doesn't have to absorb a liquid, and the flavors pop because of this.
To be clear, they are in a "soft opening" phase. Their decor is sparse and the A/C is mediocre, but it's definitely a lot more convenient than sitting or standing outside in 100 degree sun.
