Dessert shop · Fairfax District

"Philadelphians know about water ice, or as real Philly natives call it, “wudder-ice.” But for those unfamiliar, it’s a dairy-free dessert that’s half-sorbet, half-movie theater Icee, and a complete summer staple thanks to its soft texture, fruity flavors, and colorful aesthetic. In LA, none do it better than Happy Ice, an extremely popular water ice shop with multiple trucks throughout the city and a brick-and-mortar on Melrose. There are bright, punchy flavors that range from watermelon lush to mango madness, but first-timers should go for the Rainbow Rocket—a blended explosion of color that swirls together every single flavor." - kat hong, garrett snyder, arden shore, sylvio martins
