Happy Sunday! Sorry for the delayed Friday food post, but lots going on, including the great Josie Fragrance/Fashion event at Bloomingdale’s yesterday!
Mom with Josie Girls and the Josie Fragrance at Bloomingdale’s
Yes, it is November and the cold weather is here (GULP), but the conditions won’t stop me from eating shaved ice. YES SIR-E, shaved ice. In winter… even though my shaved ice store of choice is a 50 block subway ride away in the East Village. Despite the train, the cold, and the effort, it is 100% worth it. This place is unlike anywhere else! Snowdays Shavery is a snowcream shop for Asian-inspired shaved frozen cream topped with candies, cereals, fruits & syrups. If you like halo-halo (my favorite Filipino dessert) or Thai-Shaved Ice (Taiwanese), you will *love* this place. Snowcream is an evolution of the Taiwanese and Korean shaved ices, (which has taken over the west coast) and is now moving quickly across the nation.
Snowdays Shavery, opened in September.

Blizzard. YEP, I will be eating Snowdays shaved ice even in blizzard weather.
Hard at work preparing the snowy cups of heaven. The guy who makes the shaved ice is also the OWNER of the business. Props!
My choice: Coconut snow cream with condensed milk, mangoes, and captain crunch.
Regular vs. Yeti sized.
Check out the ice flakes!

Abominable snow cream.
To check out the menu, go here. And if you live in NYC, plan on visiting STAT. Worth every shiver and frozen fingers. GET IN MY BELLY. Have a great weekend!
I love this place! Not sure if i’ll be going as much in the winter but it’s still delicious.
Promise still good in winter.
nothing beats halo halo
This is a pretty good backup!
You have been eating shaved ice since we met in 1997!!!! Love it.
I KNOW! RIght???? I AM OBSESSED. Next time you are in NYC, we will have to go to this place — so good! Almost as good as that random Thai Shaved Ice Place in the middle of the LA ghetto? DO YOU REMEMBER THAT PLACE????
