Snow cones?

[tete_de_fromage]

Is there anywhere to get a real snow cone in the east bay (Berkeley/Oakland preferred)?? Not shave ice, not fancy, just a real snow cone like I used to have as a kid?
Thanks!!

The only place I can think to get a snow cone is Santa Cruz Beach Broadwalk or Japantown San Jose (shaved ice).

Whether this is the snowcone of the OP's childhood likely depends on whether they grew up in Mexico.

true, op didn't state his whereabouts when he was a kid. maybe he means hawaii.
