Coco Loco


On our last night in Tan Nai Pan village on Koh Phangan, we passed this very small new dessert bar. The two young men working there always had the nicest smiles.  The sign said “Fresh Coconut Ice Cream”. We had to have one!  

Well, we had two…. It was the best coconut ice cream ever! And they served it in half of the coconut shell with “ noodles” of the fresh coconut meat and peanuts. It was divine.  The presentation was so cool as well as they placed the “bowl” in a natural wood holder. While we were there another family came and ordered the same.  That’s when I spotted their technique. They had a guillotine contraption that took both guys, one to hold it down and one to work the lever, to split the coconut.  It was hard!


 

This little boy gave it a try… he was only 6!
