The best shaved ice places in Dallas

What better way to beat the triple-digit heat wave than, well, a power grid that isn't held together with duct tape and the bedding of a hamster cage, probably.

• But the second best option is chips of ice covered with colorful syrup — all contained in a paper to-go cup!
