Above is a picturesque reflection of a smorgasbord of sweet flavours
and sensations, a delightfully refreshing blend of deliciously fresh mango and creamy
rich vanilla topped with a sloppy drizzle of tangy mango sawce, YUM right?
WRONG.
Actually…. This mango shaved ice from Mango Yummy was seriously
un-yummy. The outer layer consists of a generous portion of unripe mango, the
rubbery near-frozen texture and tartness of which could not be saved by the sweet
sawce that it was drenched in. The inner layer consists of pellets of
hail-sized shaved ice that could not be ingested without thorough chewing with
your teeth (not recommended by dentists). The (3rd-party
manufactured) vanilla ice-cream was fine but that’s not the point.
