UPDATE 07/18: Still my favorite 刨冰 place ever. Best mochi too!! Come here at least once a month. Sometimes the toppings change a little too! Still haven't tried the tofu pudding or grass jelly yet~
Decided to come here on a whim- the hot weather today made baobing a big craving, especially post-hike. Price was 105ntd for a big bowl of shaved ice with four toppings & two big fresh mochi balls rolled in peanut powder & black sesame- sooo worth it! Taste was really satisfying, with chewy sweet potato balls and red bean balls, super refreshing I think the shaved ice bowl could even feed 2-3 people well. Peanut powder & sesame seed coated mochi was soooo good, warm and fresh with a chewy texture but a melty-gooey interior, super filling and yummy Often a line, but it moves very fast. Seating inside and outside with bathroom....

The toppings were really good and so was their peanut mochi It all looks really good and tastes really good, you can’t go wrong...

Also, for foreigners, you can add shaved ice for free as tofu is not super cold by itself. Their glutinous rice balls is best eaten asap. Summertime also offers shaved ice, white fungus and aiyu with lemon.
Only downside is seating. Definitely not enough seats. Be prepared to share, or better...
