"This Parkside takeout counter does the best Hawaiian-style shave ice in SF. A massive block of ice is ground and gently packed into a mountain powdery enough to rival Palisades at its peak—then it’s thoroughly saturated with syrup (there are 16 options, but our favorites are POG and lilikoi). Ask for ice cream underneath to maximize creaminess when the ice starts to melt, and be sure to top everything off with a dusting of li hing powder and condensed milk." - julia chen 1, patrick wong, ricky rodriguez
