Add this to your itinerary. Absolutely worth the stop…read more Shaved Ice doesn't describe it properly. It's like a fluffy snow cloud. Get the satsuma or any citrus flavor. So refreshing. The strawberry shortcake is good but super creamy and heavy. The crushed strawberry topping (extra) helps lighten it up. The sizes are massive and very reasonably priced. Benches to the side of the building.

Hansen's is a good, solid choice if you are looking for a sno-ball. They have been around for 86…read moreyears!! I like how they employ "the kids". Nostalgic to see, hard working summer jobs. You can not go to New Orleans without trying Hansens at least once. If you are local, its a really nice place to visit the evening of a hot day. I have tried the root beer, chocolate, cream of coconut, strawberry and spearmint. All have been tasty. For about $8-10 you can get a snow ball with a pineapple and cherry. For about $12-13 you can get marshmallow on top and I highly recommend this for the experience. Its typically a longer line but its part of the experience. When you go inside, its like a blast from the past. You are gonna have syrup all over the souvenir cup and all. They have many choices to choose from.

My boys loved her hotdogs and I've also had the tamales. We now go here at least once a week. Ms. Amber is very nice and such a friendly lady. Ok so my favorite flavors are the Strawberry Daiquiri, Nectar with condensed milk, and Mango Cheesecake.

Another snowball season is upon us, so once again my boyfriend and I are sampling as many Westbank…read moresnowball stands as we can. Why should the Eastbank have all the fun? We started this journey last year and, now that the stands are open again, we wasted no time exploring what the Westbank has to offer. D suggested this little stand in Belle Chasse that I didn't even know existed. Apparently it's located right next door to the famed Big Jake's sandwich shop, which is super convenient if you're in the mood for something sweet after enjoying your Big Jake burger. This stand is cash only and has a pretty diverse menu. I got a rainbow snowball (my fave) and D got a king cake snowball. Right away I knew we had a problem: the ice was chunky and this snowball was seriously lacking syrup- you can even see it in my picture. However, I didn't think that my snowball was all that bad, even though it did start to lose flavor towards the end. D didn't even finish his and said that it tasted nothing like king cake. Meh. There's some picnic tables under a covered porch for sitting on warmer days. While I wouldn't skip this stand if I was in the area, it wouldn't be my first pick for a snowball.

It was easily the star of our trip. I was actually disappointed my son enjoyed it so much because I'm usually able to snag at least half of his after her gets bored with it lol. Next time, I'll be sure to stuff my snowball with ice cream. The condensed milk was yummy and the perfect amount for my snowball! Cons: The line is always so long!!! I usually pass up this spot bc it's always so many ppl waiting.
