When I saw Kurb Side's adorable old fashioned/retro truck parked near Tin Fish, I had to restrain…read moremyself from screaming and jumping for joy. You're telling me that I can get a Sno Ball, like I'm used to getting only in the South, at Lake Calhoun?! Remember on Saved By the Bell when Jessie took speed and was in an aerobic video and said manically over and over, "I'm so excited!" That was me minus the drugs and the spandex. Okay, giddiness aside if I must, here's what you need to know: *two sizes, served in take-out containers. Small (think a side of rice) - $3, large (think what your last order of Kung Pao chicken came in) - $5 *a TON of flavors including Georgia peach, wedding cake, tiger's blood (yes, you read that correctly), blue bubble gum, dreamsicle *additional flavors or sweet cream will run you an additional $.50 each *they have sugarfree options, which I forgot to explore since I was just too excited, a la Jessie Spano I ordered the small king cake as this is a New Orleans-style sno ball truck, after all. It was a perfect purple sno ball with unidentifiable sweetness. I don't know what king cake is supposed to taste like, but I do know that there wasn't a tiny baby in my sno ball like there are in traditional king cakes. That would have been super creepy. It's finally (maybe, hopefully, finger-crossed) summer in Minneapolis and this should be at the tip-top of everyone's bucket list for the foreseeable future.

We hired Kurb Side Ice for a small corporate event and don't have enough good things to say about…read morethem. They reached out to confirm the event multiple times, and were a giant hit with our guests. Their old-fashioned truck is adorable, and their sno balls quite literally had people coming back for more. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again for a future event!

I had their Hawaiian Shaved Ice at the MN State Fair Preview Weekend. It was unlike any snow cone…read moreI've ever had. I had a Passion Fruit and Guava, with Cream drizzled on top. Yep, best snow cone ever. Hands down. I hear they'll be at US Bank Stadium as well, and they'll serve them spiked there! Let's go!

I learned about Minnesnowii Shave Ice when I went to the Kickoff to Summer with my Yelp friends…read more This year, I went with my husband and decided to get a mangonada. It was delicious. I was surprise to see boba on it, but it works! The tamarind candy was a bit hard to bite and peel off, but that's OK. There was along line at the Kickoff to Summer, which was surprising, because I didn't see that last year. There were multiple windows to order from. The staff cashier and shave ice crafters were friendly and approachable. Definitely worth it. I also saw mocha on the menu, but my heart was already set on mangonada. It is normally $8, unless you're getting the specialty ones like mangonada. They accept cash and card.

My wife and I stopped by Tropical Sno for the first time, and I can honestly say I understand why…read morethere was such a long line. There were about six cars in front of us and another ten behind us, but the wait wasn't bad at all because they kept things moving. The woman working the window, who I believe may have been the owner, was incredibly friendly. She thanked everyone for being patient, smiled the whole time, and made us feel like she truly appreciated our business. Good customer service like that sticks with me. I ordered the Strawberry and Hawaiian Blue shaved ice, and it was exactly what I was hoping for. The flavors were bold, the ice was soft, and it was the perfect treat on a warm day. This was our first visit, but it definitely won't be our last. We even got a punch card, so we'll be making plenty more trips back. If you don't mind waiting a few minutes for something that's worth it, I'd definitely recommend giving Tropical Sno a try.

Meet my new obsession, the Strawberry Snowbing!!! Wow, I tried to explain it to my daughter but…read moreI'm afraid I don't have the words to describe it properly. It's "like" Hawaiian shaved ice, but so much better... like the difference between powdery snow (Snowbing) vs heavy sleet (regular shaved ice). Service and ambiance was just okay since it's just served cafeteria style. Make sure you have time to eat it in the restaurant, because it would melt before you could take it home.

I had a very disappointing experience. My order of 6 boba teas in which 4 of them were the black…read morecrystals was missing items, and when I brought it to the employee's attention, they were very rude throughout the interaction. Instead of apologizing or taking responsibility, they did nothing to accommodate the situation, even though the mistake was on their end. What was most frustrating wasn't just the incorrect order--it was the complete lack of customer service. A simple apology or an effort to make things right would have gone a long way, but neither happened. As someone who regularly places large orders for work events and parties, this experience has cost you a loyal customer. I'll be taking my business elsewhere, and I hope the business improves both its order accuracy and the way customers are treated when mistakes happen. You're not the only boba shop in Burnsville, and there are plenty of businesses that value their customers and know how to handle mistakes with professionalism.

When my sister-in-law visited last year, we had better luck with owners making it easy for my son. This month, it is very obvious the claw machines are programmed to grab after payout but release before reaching prize chute. Without filling at the level of prize chute, you are guaranteed to lose since they will roll back down away prize chute. Only plus is their boba tea and shave ice. Only come at promotion days when you get free tokens. Birthday you get free 18 tokens and large boba drink when you purchase anything. Mall of America location is worse with points (out to 1 decimal) instead of tokens which varies too much based on prize. Only added bonus is gatcha machines have nicer toys. Also different games but more points. Birthday gets you bonus with $28 worth of tokens and free large boba tea. They clarify that you still have to purchase minimum tokens for $18 so strings attached.

To my dismay, they've expanded their brand and added Coco's Market right next door to the restaurant. AND IT'S SO FRICKEN COOL INSIDE!! You can find almost anything in there and it's a great place to get authentic Mexican souvenirs such as hats, keychains, belts, aprons, and so much more. Apart from that they also sell grocery items like avocados, limes, rice , canned items, rice, tomatoes etc... and get this, you can even send money to different countries!! The true definition of a one-stop-shop! TALK ABOUT DECOR!! This place will uplift your spirit from the moment you enter through the double doors. I love how much attention they put into making the space feel and look stunning. One a cold wintery day like today, the little things like this matter most. Seating area is nice and the noise level was adequate with a touch of Mexican cumbia music! I wasn't really in the mood for meat and I love that their expansive menu can accommodate my peculiar eating patterns lol. I started off with a HOT bowl of Mexican Menudo, then a plate of Mexican rice, beans and tortillas on the side with cheese inside.. Y-U-M-M-Y!!! This was followed by a platter of picadas (that I shared with my partner), a cup of Mexican prepared corn (esquite) and washed it all down with a glass of horchata! Overall it was to die for! I've spent a good chunk of time in Cuernavaca, Mexico and the food here reminds me so much of the food there. Coco's roots trace back to Maltrata, Vera Cruz in Mexico and I love how they've blessed the community here with a taste of home. It's located in the heart of Northfield on a strip that can be considered their downtown, so there's lots of petite mom and pop shops that you can browse. Decent amount of parking in the front area, otherwise you can also swing in the back of the building and find more parking. Going to Coco's is now a routine whenever I'm in Northfield and one that I can get used to :) Fast service + family-oriented + hot and freshly made food = Coco's Place. Once again, I left a happy camper ;)
