37 Degrees

Ever heard of snow ice? Now you will.

Snow ice is not really icy. It is more like shaved ice cream. Imagine a creamy texture that tastes just like - shaved ice cream. It is an evolved variant of shaved ice, popular in East Asian countries due to the humid and hot weather. And there you have it. Snow ice.

At 37 degrees, snow ice is available in flavors of mango, green tea, strawberry, chocolate, and original. They were out of mochi the night we visited so we topped our ices with an array of fruit, red beans, jellies, and condensed milk.
It comes out looking like a head of cabbage leaves or a wilting salad. The menu ticket is a bit archaic as they erase previously pencil marked orders.

It is something different to try. Add it to the list of ever growing Asian novelties.
