The Best Ice Cream Sundae Ever

Nothing takes me back to the hot summers of my childhood, sitting poolside with grade school friends, like a decadent ice cream sundae. The sundae has a place right alongside grilled cheese sandwiches, root beer floats, and tater tots--treats that have crossed over successfully from my childhood into grown-up guilty pleasures. I can still enjoy a really really good sundae with really really good toppings. Case in point: The best ice cream sundae I ever had was at age 23, at a mom and pop shop called Cafe Home in Los Angeles.

The cafe is situated in the heart of the city's Korea Town, and it serves a Korean-American dessert called patbingsu. A bowl of shaved is topped with green tea and strawberry ice cream, sweet adzuki bean paste, fresh fruit, cereal, soybean powder, chocolate syrup, mochi (glutinous rice flour balls), condensed milk, and whipped cream. Patbingsu is over the top. And it's fantastic.
