Tastes amazing
Pro: the food is pretty cheap. The savory jianbing starts at $5, and a dinner-plate heap of shaved ice is just $6. Con: the taste is lacking. I don’t know if my taste buds just gave up when I got the jianbing or what, but I felt like I was eating a ghost of a jianbing. I had watched the booth workers sprinkle sesame seeds and slather sauce, but the flavor was coming through only every other bite or less. It was like eating salty, savory paper, except even paper has more of a distinct taste than this jianbing. The mango shaved ice did taste like mango, but in a really floral, artificial way, and they didn’t add quite enough real mangos (or bananas, which I didn’t expect) to mask that. Nothing was disgusting, just disappointing.
The service was good. However, it made me had a stomach ache.
