almost by accident, the airbnb we ended up choosing is practically on yongkang street, a famous street in taipei where you can find all kinds of delicious food.  one of the dishes it is famous for is mango shaved ice. i love mango, so of course we had to try it!

it consists of shaved ice topped with fruit, ice-cream and condensed milk, and, as if it that wasn’t enough, served with a little dish of panna cotta on the side… 😅 the whole thing is a bomb, as we discovered — definitely too big for the two of us, and probably best shared with a couple other people. it’s amazing though, super refreshing even with frozen mangoes (since they’re not currently in season)! i can imagine this being just the perfect treat to share with friends on a hot summer day.
