Masatami Shave Ice

Masatami Shaved Ice-012
We didn’t have any dessert at Delicious Kitchen because I wanted to use the coupons I was given for Masatami Shave Ice located across the supermarket of Robinson’s Galleria.

I’ve seen this kiosk before but never had the desire to try it since I wasn’t fond of Hawaiian flavored ice.

I didn’t know they also had flavored shave ice just like the ones at Lugang Cafe and Cold Layers.

Their flower shaped plastic cups were adorable.

This is how they made the flavored shave ice. A huge block of pandan ice was placed in a machine that shaved into really thin layers.

We all liked the subtle flavor of the langka and the smooth and creamy ‘ice’ which tasted really like ice cream. This ‘ice’ contained milk.

All the flavors were really good but everyone’s favorite was the Swiss cheese. This was my order without any toppings. It looks like so much more because the toppings didn’t flatten it. The Swiss cheese flavored ice reminded be of my childhood favorite cheese dirty ice cream but this was the gourmet kind and tasted 100x better. There was a slight salty and sweet cheese flavor. I could eat this everyday!

We also tried one Hawaiian shave ice or snow cone as it was known when I was young. I don’t see this around much these days. I used to love it when I was a kid.

They have a lot of fruit flavored syrups as well as sugar free and liquor syrups. We chose the blueberry cheesecake & strawberry margarita and it was really sweet. But at least the syrups taste true to the flavor and doesn’t taste like cough syrup.

I don’t get why they had to top it with condensed milk  when it was already so sweet. Maybe for added creaminess? Five people shared one order and we couldn’t finish it. Probably because we all had our own flavored ice too.

Adults may not be so keen on this but I bet the kiddies will love this specially the bubble gum and cotton candy flavors.

One thought on “Masatami Shave Ice

  1. Planing to get a machine from Taiwain which cost 10,000. for business on Maui . Will have taho also. Taho is very easy to make and using vinegar just a little in it make it organic. People now are make it own cheese again and see it very easy along with yogurt and sour cream.
