“How could you forget the popsicle place? That’s the place to go for dessert.” Straight from Dora’s lips to your screen. Thanks, dear.

Las Paletas really is a great spot and unlike any other place you’ll go to. Makes me wish for summer just because there’s nothing better for one of our scorcher August days than one of their grapefruit paletas (Spanish for “popsicle”).

But don’t think these are your ordinary everyday popsicles like the kind you had as a kid. Not even close. These are made by two sisters from Mexico who are popsicle experts. They’ve created all kinds of flavors including crazy ones like avocado, cucumber and chocolate wasabi.

It can be hard to find (unless they have a sign up now). So just park on 12th Ave. S. and ask. Dora would also want you to know that you can do some shopping around there.

Adios!
