Friday Food Critic: A Big Chill Shaved Ice

Here in Affton and Shrewsbury, we have plenty of great local restaurants, from mom-and-pop joints to the chains lining our main streets.

What we don't have is a consistent food critic to tell us what's good and what's not. 

That's where you come in.

We could throw some money at a professional food critic, but that's not exactly what Patch is all about. We'd much rather know the opinion of the fine folks that eat there day-in and day-out.

It's your community. You eat the food. You tell us if it passes the mark.

That's why we are introducing The Friday Food Critic column, where each week we will put a different restaurant on the chopping block. You tell us how you feel about it, what dishes are good, who has the best drink specials and so forth.

This week's restaurant is , a local shaved ice stand open in the summer at the corner of Heege and MacKenzie roads.

To review , simply click on their name. You'll be directed toward their community listing in our places directory, where you can rate them on a five-star system or write a personal review.

At Affton-Shrewsbury Patch, we believe your words of wisdom are better than any food critic.

What are you waiting for? Let the reviewing begin!
