Their Mango bingsu ($15.90), with its generous pile of milky shaved ice, chunks of fresh mango, whipped cream, and mango ice cream, comes highly recommended. You can get a larger version of this dessert for $18.90, and you can add various toppings too. These toppings include Cheese Cake ($4), Red Bean ($2), Almond ($2), and 1 Scoop of Ice Cream ($2).

Another popular pick is the Injeolmi bingsu ($12.90). For the uninitiated, injeolmi is essentially Korean rice cakes dusted in sweet and nutty soybean powder. In a bowl, you’ll find mini rice cakes, sliced almonds, and soybean powder atop a mound of shaved ice. To enhance the milkiness and sweetness of the dessert, a side of condensed milk is served to be poured over too.

Other equally delicious flavours include Green Tea (13.90), Oreo ($12.90), Strawberry ($15.90), Choco Banana ($14.90), and Milo ($12.90), which is a local spin on the Korean dessert.

Otherwise, go for the Hotteok ($6), a fried sweet pancake that’s a common street food in Korea.

Gangnam Cafe’s range of tteokbokki is also worth trying. Go for the Original Tteokbokki ($9.90) and pair it with some Dumplings ($3 for four pieces) and Seaweed Rolls ($3 for two pieces). Melted cheese can also be added at an additional $3. Alternatively, there’s also Bulgogi Tteokbokki ($13.90), Ramen Tteokbokki ($11.90), Spicy Cheese Tteokbokki ($12.90), and Original Tteokbokki With Cheese ($12.90).
