So has anyone ever tried italian ice? Do you like 'em? It's just fruit flavor mixed with ice. Simple but yummy. happy.gif
My favorite is the orange vanilla swirl or the lemon flavor. I live near this place called The Lemon Ice King Of Corona & they make the best ices ever.

I've never been to that place, but I'll probably visit it sometime when I can. I don't live too far from Corona. happy.gif

I like the lemon flavor the most. :D
me1issaaaa
Aren't those pretty much the same as snow cones?
secretwish
^ Well, I guess snow cones are rock-hard ice with flavor in it. Italian ice is softer & mushier & more similar to ice cream.

Snow cones.

Oh okay. I see what you mean. Those look mighty tasty tongue.gif
think!IMAGINARILY
OMG.

But I've only been to the pizzeria next to the bridge in Flushing. XD.gif They only sell the regular kinds, not pistachio, coconut, or coffee. sad.gif

There's a pizzeria next to the bridge in Flushing? o.o Are you talking about the bridge that has AA Plaza beneath it?
think!IMAGINARILY
Umm, I think so.. But I'm not really sure what AA Plaza is. XD.gif
The pizzeria is right next to the store that sells bags, which is right next to the Footlocker.
Like..

Old Navy-|-Footlocker-|-Bag store-|-Pizzeria-|-Bridge-|-Asian supermarket

The Italian ices there are nothing special.. Just the regular Marino's Italian Ices.

Isn't that the same as sherbert or a sorbet?
marzipan
Gosh, that stuff is amazing. I love it! I like snow cones better because of the crunchiness, but Italian Ice is good too.

Oh, that pizzeria. My mind blanked out for a moment since I've only been there once, and I wasn't the one buying anything. XD.gif

AA Plaza is that place under the bridge where they sell Chinese food to go.
