Stop and smell the flowers, and you'll spot the soy custard.
Where the couple are leaning, toward the right of the shop (click this or any photo for a better look), there's a window where you can order fresh-scooped custard. Though none of the variations vary that much, I'm partial to the one with boiled peanuts (small; $1.50), sweetened with a honeylike syrup that sinks almost immediately to the bottom. Around the corner, I found an appropriate place to enjoy it.

I'll add, by the way, that I don't know whether the flower shop has set up this stand, or whether they sublease some of their frontage on this busy street to a (very) small-business owner who sells custard.
