The Shaved Iced Shop at the Hester Street Fair

This is one good pie

Blondie and Browinie have some great  coverage of First Place Pies and their awesome “s’mores Pie” .   NYC Food Guy has a piece about Ledd Zeppole’s cookies and cream Italian ices.  If those offereings don’t sound enticing enough, Serious Eats New York recommneds Tres Leche Cake from La Lucha.

Enjoy!
