shaved ice (Page 2)
“Donburi” usually refers to dishes eaten over a bowl of rice, so how could this concept possibly work?
This innovative dessert has all the cooling power of a regular shaved ice, but with a funky mint chocolate twist and a presentation upgrade.
Japanese netizens react to the PR photo with a variety of “helpful” advice hashtags, as well as some hashtags that aren’t very helpful at all.
Stand at attention, and in awe, of this towering behemoth of brain freezes and deliciousness.
