READERS' POLL RUNNER-UP: GKC Cinema, 4690 N. Oracle Road
A REAL SCREAM: Open late seven days a week, the bright blue Frosty Sno trailer, 849 W. Congress St., beckons to the parched and bored with its painted rainbow. Located just west of El Rio health clinic, a Frosty Sno snowcone is a treat any time of day. For just under $3, you can order a mountain of shaved ice in more than 20 flavors (the popular ones have little red arrows next to them), with the option of combining up to three flavors in one cone. There are also a variety of add-ins, like fresh fruit, ice-cream and saldaditos (dried, salted plums). Another favorite such enterprise is the surreal Sonoran Snoballs trailer, its midnight blue and neon pink shell appearing and disappearing at various midtown sites. (A regular spot is the northeast corner of Broadway and Campbell Avenue.)
