The "Alun Ice Shop" located in Chaozhou, Pingtung is famous for its signature dish "Burning Cold Ice", a traditional delicacy that should not be missed. The term Burning Cold Ice may sound contradictory, but it is actually a perfect blend of hot and cold: beneath a bowl of shaved ice lies steaming hot ingredients, such as red beans and peanut soup. When the hot ingredients meet the icy shaved ice, they create a rich layer of texture.
Upon the first bite, your tongue first senses the delicate and fluffy shaved ice, followed closely by the dense sweetness of the hot red beans and the chewy texture of the glutinous rice balls. The contrast between the cold and hot creates a unique flavor explosion in your mouth. The portion is just right for an adult to finish.
Although the shop's appearance is humble, it is always bustling with customers, attracting both locals and tourists alike. Just looking at the ingredient counter will make your mouth water. If you have the chance to travel to Chaozhou, make sure not to miss this bowl of "Burning Cold Ice" that fuses memories and warmth. The entire area is surrounded by a variety of snacks that are also worth trying.
