"It’s day three of a heatwave, your AC is busted, and you need multiple freezer pops to cope: head to Viva Cafe. This Oaxacan ice cream shop in Koreatown has over 20-plus paleta flavors, plus dozens of by-the-scoop options like coconut, mango with chamoy, and a bright pink concoction called the Oaxaqueño. The signature flavor is a mix of leche quemada and pitaya ice cream—a sweet-tart tropical fruit flavor with a surprising smoky aftertaste." - garrett snyder, arden shore, sylvio martins
