hello halo-halo


today we went to the lotus festival. i had never been before but this was mainly to entertain the family. it was a nice day but echo park was so crowded. of course there was the typical festival food (roasted corn, yum!), but the highlight was definitely the halo-halo from the filipino restaurant. i was so excited to eat it that i completely forgot to take a picture before obliterating it. hence, i had to rip some random one off the internet. halo-halo is basically a very popular filipino dessert consisting of shaved ice covered with various toppings such as taro, coconut, cream, beans, etc! see a more detailed description here.
