Raspados are a delicious option to help us cool off in the summer.
Emilio Soto was on his way to be a hygienist when he eventually realized that's not actually the career path he wanted to take.
If you're unfamiliar with raspados, they're similar to shaved ice but typically come with juice, chunks of fruit, ice cream and lechera . Or there are bolder versions with spicy candies and chamoy. So when a spot became available on Nogales Highway near Valencia Road, Emilio and Carina Soto decided to give it a go.
Deliciocho's menu was partially inspired by Emilio Soto's dad, who is now a contractor but had always wanted to open a spot for tortas. And the birria recipe used at Deliciocho has been in the Soto family for generations, starting with Emilio Soto's grandmother Carmen Soto. Some names of menu items are based off of characters from the show, and there are even churro desserts that come in mini souvenir barrels — because the main character in the show lives in a barrel.Of course, Deliciocho is one of many spots in Tucson to find raspados and antojitos, street snacks. Common delights at these shops include Tosti-Locos, fresas con crema and elote. Check out 26 shops below.At Delicias De Michoacan, you can find lots of paletas, ice cream and raspados.
