Shaved Ice

Another heads up we got from someone I sat next to on the plane from Anchorage to Maui. She had been to Hawaii many times before. I asked her any things you must do or eat? She replied, you have to get shaved ice w/ice cream.

We ended up trying it at three different places. The best shaved ice we had was in Khei. Not only were they huge, but you got to choose three flavors for the shaved ice and then they poured cream over the top of the whole thing. They shave it right in front of you off a huge block of ice. So ice cream on the bottom, then the shaved ice, then the flavors then cream. The ice is shaved so fine its like powdered sugar. The Macadamia Nut Chocolate ice cream is pretty good too! One thing we found eating in Maui, the portions are huge. Everywhere.
