If you're in the ichondong area and want to have bingsoo or red bean porridge, then give this place a try. There will be a bit of a wait. Is it worth the wait? DEFINITELY NOT. I've had worse, but the offering is AVERAGE, AT BEST. The portion is average; the taste is average; the service is average. I would not go out of my way to eat here.

A small cafe that serves decent shaved ice and red bean soup. Red bean itself isn’t heavily sweetened but the milk ice is. Relatively affordable (7000~7500 KRW for a bowl of bingsu). A variety of flavors available (milk tea, strawberry, green tea, etc). Minus two stars because I saw two gigantic roaches on the window and the floor...............

The Snow White Bingsu (as the name translated) is milk flavor, lightly sweetened and delightful in taste, though not particularly unique. I'd love to try the red bean flavor next time, we were so full after just one bowl ;-;

Visited this place after trip to the National Museum. Its not difficult to find but requires a little bit of a walk. I thought it would be easy but I didnt realize there were train tracks across the museum I thought it would be easy to reach just walking across the residential area opposite the museum. For a while wanted to give up cause didn't know when will be able to cut across the train tracks, but saw hope when I saw the overhead bridge. That area is a bit messy because the shop is located in front of the residential area which the people have already moved out and looks like the place is going to be torn down. Anyway finally found it and it didnt look big there were only several tables and it was almost full. I came a little early if not the customers who came after me had to wait for tables and some decided to do take away instead. Business seems good there were a lot of takeaway orders. I was quite shocked when I looked at the menu because I didnt expect their bingsu to be so expensive. After trying most bingsus at 3500 won, this place is almost double the amount, but I still decided to try it. There are other flavours but I picked on the most standard patbingsu, and also not forgetting to try the red bean porridge as well. The porridge and patbingsu looks and taste good I must admit, still a little shocked by the price. Do give it a try if you are around the area.

It was okay. There was a lot of hype about it but I personally have had better bingsus with better Adzuki beans. I'd come again if around but not necessarily and specifically for this.

Ice flakes with red bean paste(prepared by themselves) desserts are so good!

If you want fantastic dessert, try this korean dessert. You must eat this amazing dessert in your life.

The best red bean paste ice. Not recommended during winter times as there are no customers, but two disgruntled old ladies in the kitchen complaining about pretty much everything out loud. Suggest to make your order to go.
