The 9 Best Shave Ice Spots in Hawai‘i | Eater
"One of Hawai‘i’s oldest shave ice shops still in existence (open since 1940), Waiola offers the quintessential shave ice experience: a highlighter-bright rainbow of colors poured over super soft, fluffy snow, served through the window of a worn neighborhood convenience store. The ice practically evaporates on the tongue, leaving behind just the cool, sweet syrup that may taste artificial in flavor but will conjure the childhood you had, or wished you had, in Hawai‘i. Cap your ice with the deceptively named liliko‘i (passionfruit) cream, which is more like a thick syrup the consistency of honey, studded with liliko‘i seeds. Two locations: 2135 Waiola St., (808) 949-2269 3113 Mokihana St., (808) 735-8886" - Martha Cheng
