The 15 Best Sorbet, Paleta, & Shave Ice Spots In Los Angeles - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"TastyBlock uses a real, proper ice machine, which shaves fine layers from a block, creating a fluffy, snow-like base. The ice is allowed to shine, never overdone with too much condensed milk, chamoy, or li hing mui powder (a salted dried plum powder that makes your mouth pucker). The standard syrups here, like blue vanilla, strawberry, or guava are good, but the best flavor? Dill. Pickle. It’s the owner’s special creation, a lime-green elixir that tastes like sweet vinegar and will boggle your mind in the best way." - garrett snyder, arden shore, sylvio martins
