The Little One Menu (Update 2025)
Introducing "The Little One," a charming dessert haven nestled in the heart of Chinatown, New York. Specializing in shaved ice, this petite pastry shop delights with a menu that celebrates Japanese flavors. Notable offerings include the Matcha Banana Pudding, featuring velvety matcha pudding layered with fresh bananas and homemade wafers, and the Tri Color Dango, a colorful trio of dango served with silky kuromitsu and kinako.
