Los Alpes Ice Cream Parlor

15 Fantastic Restaurants to Try in the Gateway Cities of Southeast LA | Eater LA

"For the largest, most drool-inducing selection of paletas in town, head to Los Alpes Ice Cream Parlor in Huntington Park. Fernando Flores, along with his wife, Margarita, opened the shop in 1979 and make over 50 varieties of paletas de aguas (water-and-juice-based pops) and paletas de crema (milk- or cream-based pops). The paletas de aguas, which come in flavors like tamarind (tamarindo), hibiscus (jamaica), and alfalfa, are the most refreshing bunch, while the paletas de crema are a touch richer with flavors like arroz (rice), Mexican eggnog (rompope), and vanilla. —Cathy Chaplin" - Eater Staff
