How to order, step by step
- Find the small shop at No. 20 Jishan Street, near the start of the street
- Order one roll at the counter. Staff shave peanut brittle onto a thin crepe and add the ice cream
- Say whether you want cilantro. It's traditional, but you can ask them to leave it out
- Staff let you take a photo before they wrap it
- It's takeaway only, so eat it as you walk before it melts. Skip it if you have a peanut allergy
What to order solo: One roll with taro or peanut ice cream. It's a small, cheap snack. Check the posted price.
Best time to go alone: Morning or late afternoon, when the front part of Jishan Street is less packed.
