On the flight to Maui, Jon and Sarah saw an article in the Hawaiian Airlines magazine about a place called Frost City in Honolulu. They have a new kind of shave ice that is mixed with ice cream.
We've been wanting to try this place and with only two more full days left before Jon and Sarah's departure, it was our last chance. We arrived at 12:15 and discovered that the place does not open until 12:30.
The friendly owner arrived at 12:20 and the doors opened promptly. People started arriving immediately!
The prices weren't cheap, but that didn't deter all the excited customers.
The small dish cost $4.75.
The regular was $6.00.
Everybody bought a small dish. I bought the ummmm... large.
Jon chose a haupia (coconut), mango, pomelo snow ice.
Sarah ordered a strawberry.
I had a chocolate because they had already run out of watermelon which I really wanted.
No problem!
The chocolate was fabulous! It was like eating light, feathery, icy, tasty ice cream. It's hard to describe, but it was excellent. I did share my large dish with everybody.
Art had haupia which he liked fine even though he had been hoping for the watermelon also.
By the time we left, the place was packed.
On we went to our next adventure in Waikiki.
Think hamster!
