It's a snow cone spot but make it chaotic. Chamoy, Tajín, and yes... diced pickles. They call it piccadilly and I know that sounds unhinged. First bite: confused. Second bite: okay wait. Third bite: suddenly you've crushed the whole thing. I got a flat top (not the big dome) with tiger's blood piccadilly and it felt very Tucson. Sweet, tangy, salty, weirdly addictive. Also open late which I love because sometimes you just need a random midnight snow cone moment. Service was great even that late. Total hidden gem, random location, and now my new favorite thing. Also found out it started in Lubbock, Texas which somehow makes this even more unexpected. Just go. It's an experience.

Overall, great experience. Here's why: I'm not a huge "water ice" connoisseur, didn't grow-up on…read morethe east coast eating it so I don't love it out of tradition or nostalgia, I like it, but don't always love it. I mean, it's right there in the name, it's literally watery ice with some flavoring, so maybe it would peak for me in the crazy heat of summer when the cold is refreshing. However, add some frozen custard to make it a "gelati", and now we're getting somewhere anytime of year. I got the root beer water ice gelati, which means they start with frozen custard in the bottom of the cup (I love the vanilla), add some water ice on top to fill the cup, then add more frozen custard on top above the rim. Check out the pic I posted. My wife got the wild black cherry gelati. My rootbeer water ice was a bit bland, not strong enough tasting, her wild black cherry water ice was really flavorful and good. The frozen vanilla custard on both was excellent, rich, creamy and smooth. Every time I eat at Rita's I want to tell them 90% custard, 10% water ice. And they're always so incredibly nice they'd definitely do it. Next time! I keep saying that, seriously, next time! The service at this location was extremely welcoming and friendly, it was great. Atmosphere is bright and open, lots of light, colorful light board menus, lots of colorful, fun, happy signs with specials and such. The place is clean and well kept, comfortable, not too loud, with a slow steady stream of customers. Check out my pics of the inside. I think as far as water ice goes, compared to many other places, and I've had a few, though I'm not a water ice aficionado, Rita's is excellent. As far as frozen custard goes, Rita's is excellent. The choices and toppings are endless. I recommend Rita's. ***FREE WATER ICE DAY is coming up on March 20th. Great time to pop in and give it a shot, worth the extra to add some of that delicious frozen vanilla custard to your favorite flavor water ice.

Decades ago, Eegee's used to be one of my go-to spots. Over the years, however, the sandwiches became dry and started tasting like mostly bread. Slice and Ice did not disappoint. Their Italian three-meat and cheese hero was delicious. The sandwich was not dry at all, and you could really taste the meats and fillings. It paired perfectly with their fries dipped in the ranch sauce. I honestly cannot think of another combination that goes together so well. Service was friendly and fast. I hope this place becomes my new go-to spot, just like Eegee's was for me years ago.
