江水號 — Restaurant in Tainan

I am not a shaved ice expert and also not a huge fan compare to others, but I gotta say this the hands down the best shaved ice I have ever tried in my life!!! My friend recommended me to give it and try and I was like okay if I got extra time I’ll go. Luckily I passed by this place accidentally so I went in. The 八寶冰 which literally translate to “Eight-treasure ice” was amazing. I have never had any shaved Ice that keep everything so balance. All the ingredients match with each other so perfectly, not too much ice, not too sweet and with a bit citric flavor from the pineapple. Trust me if u ever come to this place near by, don’t miss this out. I’m not getting any money on saying this but I highly recommend this...

*No AC Alert (but u probably won't need it)

More than a half-decade-old ice store! We only ordered lemon aiyu jelly topped with shaved ice. It's so vital amid scorching heat. And it surely did its job to cool us down and refresh our tastes. You can feel the bouncing, semi-liquid texture of the jelly in your mouth, yet it’s not mushy & hollow enough to dissolve right away, offering some realness and solidness. The shaved ice was such a cherry on top (or should I just say shaved ice on top as a new expression). You will beg for more because it's so compatible with the jelly. The ice added a breeze and an extra crunchiness to this dessert. Even in winter, don’t leave...

Local favorite shaved ice. Doesn't have many toppings left when I went at 4pm (almost sold out!) But the ice and sugar was really good and deserved the high price of 50NT! We got the almond jelly and the green beans but tried a little of the konajaku and the mochi which were all amazing. Very refreshing! They are known for their taro as well....
