Koko Kakigori - Review - Mills 50 - Orlando - The Infatuation

"If you’re in the mood to eat a massive kakigori under an equally massive tree, go to Koko. The kakigori and ceramics specialists operate in a house the size of a very nice closet. You may have to wait in line outside since the space is so tiny. When it’s your turn to walk in, you not only get to choose your kakigori, but the bowl it’s served in, which the staff made themselves. Presentation is half the fun here. The towering kakigori is a vibrant, symmetrical work of art and digging into it feels like taking a spoon to a glacier. The flavors involve matcha, strawberry, black sesame, seasonal fruit, and more combinations that are never too sweet. Even on a blisteringly hot summer day, the kakigori doesn’t melt too fast thanks to shade from the bodhi tree." - Ryan Pfeffer
