It's
snowing in Perth...check out Perth's latest
snow ice treat.
Looking
for something refreshing or a touch of something sweet after dinner?
It's
snowing in Perth.......not really. If you are hoping to see any
snow in Perth, the Stirling Ranges in the South West of WA is probably
your best chance of seeing any snow. If you are lucky, one may catch
a glimmer of snow at its highest peak Bluff Knoll which rises to
just over 1000 metres.
Meanwhile,
back at the snow ice factory, Icey Ice has been busily rolling out
shops in Perth. There are currently three Icey Ice shops in Perth.
Judging by the word of mouth amongst friends, Icey Ice has gained
a reputation for some very tasty ice treats which are a bit different
from run of the mill ice cream and has gained an avid following
amongst locals. Looks like Icey Ice is here to stay and as we speak
Icey Ice is busily expanding in Perth and opening new shops in Queensland
in the second half of 2008.
I
have been meaning to try Icey Ice for some time now since it opened
its shop in Northbridge. Funnily enough, the first time i tried
Icey Ice was by coincidence at its newly opened shop in Victoria
Park rather than at either the Northbridge or Perth CBD shop which
i pass by quite frequently in my travels.
Was
dining out with my other half at a Japanese restaurant during a
weekday on the cafe strip along Albany Highway, Victoria Park and
we were on our way back to the car when we decided to peruse the
menu outside the Icey Ice shop. The Icey Ice shop is located opposite
the Makan Makan Cafe. Heard someone from inside the shop call out
my name and as it turned out my friend Dino Sheref is one of the
owners of the new Icey Ice shop in Victoria Park. Dino mentioned
that the shop had only recently opened in May 2008. We sampled the
mango ice and our first impressions were that it was very refreshing;
it melts in the mouth; and superbly captures the unique flavour
of mango. The beauty of the mango ice is that it is able to harness
the natural mango flavour by using the basic ingredients of fresh
mango pulp and filtered water.
The inside of
the shop has a cool ambiance and is fitted out with snowflakes and
Icey Ice's signature dancing penguin. Icey Ice's motto is that
ice tastes like snow and melts in your mouth. Icey Ice is a Taiwanese
concept and offers snow ice in all manner of ice......including
original milk, green tea,
mango, coffee,
and peanut. There are also various toppings to go with your ice
including read bean, fresh mango, mango sauce, peanuts, chocolate,
and fruit toppings such as banana. Prices for a sweet treat range
from around $4.50 for a regular plus $1 to $2 for extra toppings.
I
will be back for more Icey Ice at some stage to try out other offerings
on the menu.
