I’ve been to the New Orleans SnoBall Cafe (located next to Garlic Thai on West Ponce) a couple of times and I’m completely hooked. The shaved ice is deliciously smooth, there’s a never-ending combination of flavors and the owners are incredibly friendly.
Have you been yet? Well, if not, this weekend is your chance because Saturday from 11a.m. to 4p.m. is their grand opening. The first 30 people will get a free t-shirt and edible goodies will include an organic frozen fruit drink, spinach dip, muffulettas, and of course snoballs. For more details check out their website.
And for those of you who are thinking, “Who’s going to want a snoball in the dead of winter?!” Don’t worry. The owners have thought it through and will be introducing more cold weather items in the fall.
Laissez les bon temps roulez!
I love this place!!! They have homemade hot chocolate, Coffee, cookies, and a ton of other things. They also have “winter flavor” snowballs. My favorite is a scoop of pumpkin ice crem and condensed milk. They have Lemoncellos and muffelattas. Heaven. Check them out.
