    Injeolmi sulbing
    Stephanie M.

    We got the injeolmi sulbing. For the price that we paid, it's definitely on the pricier side. It's very small. The mochi bits on top tasted like they'd been sitting at the shop for days (very stale). It wasn't overly sweet as you could control the amount of condensed milk you put on it. Wouldn't come here for shaved ice again.

    I have wanted to try this place for a long long time and finally got a chance to. They are located on Robson St. across from Whole Foods. After having a sumptuous dinner at Saku next door, I decided to come here for dessert. On the day I visited, there was only outdoor seating available. The ambiance was not the most ideal since there was an abundance of noise and air pollution from all the people and cars swarming Robson St. I tried the red bean bing su. In terms of flavor, it was 3-stars as well. The shaved ice lacks any flavor and there were large icy chucks mixed in with the snow. To ameliorate the lack of flavor, I had to add extra condensed milk into the bing su, which the server was reluctant to give me a second tablespoon of. The red bean paste was mediocre, but not bad either.

    Strawberry cheese melon bingsu

    Craving dessert on Robson St and stumbled upon sulbing. They have a few seats indoors and then outdoor seating as well. We were intrigued by the strawberry cheese melon bingsu, $19.95, which looked very nice in the photo. But the actual product we got did not look like what was advertised, so be warned! We were expecting it to come in a nice melon. The taste itself was pretty good though - the melon pieces and strawberries were nice and sweet. We shared between 3 people.

    I go to Sulbing Café every time I go to Vancouver, BC. It is a small place but the desert is very good. There use to be a 雪花冰 store a block away which was even better but it was a victim of the pandemic. If you like Taiwanese style shaved milk ice please go to this cute little place so downtown Vancouver doesn't loose it's last one! Just fair warning... although the size looks big to share... get your own! It is too yummy to share. :)

    Terrible sulbing that I ever have!!! I paid 16$ for just milk ice!!! No red beans !!!!! TERRIBLE!

    Strawberry bingsoo
    Shanon L.

    The price of desserts now honestly is kinda insane. I could not believe that bingsoo could be at an upwards of $18?? Don't come here if you want to save money. So I go the strawberry bingsoo and it was good. Nothing fantastical I mean it's bingsoo. The size is ok for 2 people share. It was perfect sweetness. I just don't know if it was completely worth $16 but I guess inflation amirite? Service was attentive and quick! I don't know if I would come back again though. I would have to be in a certain mood to come back here

    Green Tea Bingsu

    The mango bingsu here was so good the first time we had it. However, the amount of times we come by to get it again they are ALWAYS sold out!! This time we tried the green tea bingsu and it tastes so bland! The best part is the ice cream on top but other than that, you're eating ice with your ice cream!

    Usually for last few years I've been ordering from Esther at Dipnsip & Unni Pastries. I was…read morereferred at my friend's wedding as I was looking for cakes and pastries for in-laws. Well it seems ownership has changed and the new owner doesn't give two craps about prior customers, honoring discounts, replying back timely or being more friendly? Was playing email tag and finally submitted the 39 flavors and didn't hear back until after another week and then told they won't deliver only in morning when they know our reservation was for 730pm and they're open until 9? I even replied back and nothing. We own and run several business in lower mainland and in United States and this customer service from Unni Pastries is trash. At least you can do is reply back and apologize? For wasting time when I specifically told you it's for family and friends flying into town for a funeral burial. Will never use their business again. I highly suggest Mello. They replied and helped me out last minute. Shame on you! Learn how to run a business and treat customers esp previous customers who were supporting the business and fellow Krn but it's clear the new owner doesn't care about the customer or quality it's all about quantity. Maybe my 39 donuts which I offered to pay extra for time and packaging wasn't large enough but money is money. Especially during this time and economy. You should've at least replied back and even tried asking us to do pickup as the restaurant is down the road. Do better! Go to Mello which isn't too far and they bake fresh daily better pricing and reviews and consistency!

And also the more modern cold desserts such as mango, ube sago and even grass jellies. We opt to order their ube trio and it was heavenly. It had an authentic and strong ube taste. The sagos were cooked just right with the perfect texture and most importantly, it wasn't too sweet. We also ordered their instagram worthy mahjong tiles which is essentially red bean and coconut pudding. It's very cute and definitely instagram worthy. It's not too sweet and I liked that it came with a side of red bean sauce which made it less dry. The money is also made of edible paper but we didn't touch it cuz it felt weird eating it. However, it wasn't anything special and we wouldn't order it again. It was quite busy when we arrived on a Friday night but it's much easier to go in a smaller party. We were a party of 2 and walked right in even though others were waiting because they needed a bigger table. The place is clean and service was fast. They don't have a time limit even though they are busy so it's a great hang out spot. We would definitely be back to try out other items they have to offer.

And right now (not sure until when) they have a giant sandpit installed in the middle of their store. If you spend $25, you get to play with their toy excavator. And if you collect over 30g of gems, you can spin the wheel and win prizes. (Big prize = $20 coupon) Great for keeping kids and adults that are still kids at heart (myself included), happily occupied.

I'm from the Bay Area and we have our fair share of Japanese grocery stores (shout out to Niiya in Japantown in San Francisco) but I was very excited to see the selection here. Definitely came across items I've never seen before like a Takoyaki flavored Ramune. It was extremely discounted just fyi probably for good reason. They even had Japanese canned drinks stored hot like in Japan! The take away Japanese desserts also looked good. This place is right on Robson street so a great place to grab a snack, drink, pick me up while shopping. Prices seemed reasonable. One caveat is that it can get busy in here and the aisles are small so it felt a little crowded but that's sort of like Japan as well lol so not a big deal for me. Added to the ambience. Checkout was quick and easy!

It sounds crowded - and it is - but once you push your way to the back of the store, you'll find a tiny Japan tour travel agency and a shelf of clearance items at rock-bottom prices. Service is cheerful, personable and brisk. The store also houses a takeaway crepe and ice cream shop - the crepes are actually better than the ones I've had in Tokyo.
