I went to Hawaii a couple years ago on vacation and waited in line at the infamous Matsumoto's…read moreShaved Ice to try their "legendary" shaved ice. I have to admit, I thought it was pretty darn good... that was until I payed a visit to the local shaved ice vendor in Porter: the Southern Belle's Snow Shack. I came for a traditional Piña Colada snowball, no frills. Then I found out that they're one of the few places that offer them "loaded" (which comes with ice cream in the middle and a condensed milk topping). I was kinda skeptical of the combination of the two in Hawaii so I never tried it with the topping, but the attractive stand operator in her southern style floral apron convinced me otherwise. It was the best d*mn snowball I've ever had... I honestly don't know how they do it. More fascinating, that they're located in the heart of small town Porter, TX. I'm convinced that once people catch on, this place is going to become one of those stands people drive miles out of their way to visit. I'll definitely be going back next time I get a sweet tooth.

I didn't see any blue in the drink. Food: the corn was delicious, but like I said the wait time is not gonna bring me back for more. The owner did suggest the Chicago style hotdog and he said it was really good. I'm gonna take his word for. The spicy corn was delicious and the snowcone was ok. The pickle hit the spot. I would go back in the future but just not now but one day!
