This past trip, we were reintroduced to a favorite New Orleans treat -- the snoball. Similar to the classic snow cone or the Hawaiian "shave ice," the snoball was one of our favorite ways to beat the July heat in NOLA, especially after a long day's work. Read all about them in this vintage (1943) article from the New Orleans Times-Picayune, which mentions our favorite shop on Tchoupitoulas (Chop-a-two-las) street, just blocks from where we stayed this past year.
