Mexican ice cream vendor
Walking down Knickerbocker Ave., along Maria Hernandez Park, I saw a gentleman sitting by the curb before a small barrel that contained a smaller tub; with a bowl scraper, he slathered a sunny yellow substance into serving cups.
"Mexican ice cream," he told me, or perhaps this was a particularly creamy "Mexican ice"; I was already digging into the flavor of the day, a very rich vanilla (small cup; $1). Though I didn't linger long enough to get the whole story, I had the impression that he's associated with an established dairy-products business — if true, other days might bring other flavors.
