  • ★★★★½ Matcha Snow Ice Milk Tea Snow Ice Visited Nov 13, 2021

    Taiwanese Ice? Its Paper Thin Shaved Ice Cream.

    Looking for something different, look no further. Nu Cafe has an assortment of fizzy drinks, bubble drinks, and ice cream that will keep you busy for several visits.

    Located in the largest Chinatown shopping center, its surrounded by many restaurants offering a huge variety of asian food & cuisine. Nu Cafe makes the perfect end to your asian dinner.

    Nu Cafe features Taiwanese Ice. Which is a variation of your standard ice cream. Taiwanese ice is prepared with more water than milk, frozen into a solid block and then shaved off using a food processor type machine that cuts paper thin layers of ice cream. You then select a fruit, bubble, or gelatin topping, and sauce of your choice, and it all comes out on a plate stacked up little a little mountain of snow.

    Vanilla? Chocolate? sure.. but what about, almond, durian, mango, taro, & lychee? Your sure to visit more than once, or share your order with someone because you cant make up your mind.

    Toppings include about a dozen types of fruit jelly (gelatin), fresh fruits, marshmellows, chocolate chips, brownies, & candies.

    To add to all this, drinks with syrups and sodas, boba, smoothies, teas, and other items are offered as well.

    My personal favorite is the Vanilla Ice, with a side of rainbow jelly & sweet and condensed milk on top.

    This is an amazing spot to try something new, its a great place to take the kids, and the perfect way to end your evening in Chinatown.
