This Taiwanese Dessert Spot In Montreal Serves Shaved Ice As Big As Your Head

Just because it's HUGE, doesn't mean you have to share.

There's nothing better than digging into a cold, refreshing dessert on a hot summer day in Montreal. Since Taiwanese shaved ice (also known as Baobing and Tsuabing) fulfills that craving perfectly, we say the bigger the better. 

Meet Fresh, a Taiwanese dessert restaurant with a location on Rue Sainte-Catherine O., takes that notion to the next level by serving shaved ice as big as your head... seriously.

Even though their shaved ice desserts are huge, you may not want to share because they're also incredibly delicious. 

Each shaved ice dessert on the menu is piled high with toppings ranging from taro to brown sugar milk to mochi, mango and strawberry. 

If you're not in the mood for shaved ice — or you're ridiculously hungry — Meet Fresh also has taro balls, grass jelly, purple sweet potato treats, tofu pudding, almond soup, purple rice desserts, waffles and more.
