"The award for the most over-the-top-but-not-in-an-insufferably-Instagrammy-way shaved ice goes to Lutong Pinoy for its halo-halo. This Filipino dessert is refreshing yet rich, and features more textures than we have words for. Lutong Pinoy starts with a bowl of crushed ice and drowns it in evaporated milk. Then comes a whole kitchen’s worth of toppings: jams, jellies, tropical fruit, ube ice cream, a chunk of flan, and a sprinkle of Fruity Pebbles because why the hell not? As you can imagine, it's meant to be shared. " - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, carlos c olaechea
