    Tucked in uptown Waterloo is a Korean dessert shop, serving Bingsu! This is a snowy fluffy dessert with toppings - snow with toppings. Who wouldn't love that? They come in various flavours including the traditional Injeolmi, which has a good dusting of soy bean powder, rice cakes and topped with red bean paste. This is really good for those who don't want something too sweet. The red bean gives the shaved ice a bit of sweetness. Rice cakes are chewy and sweet as well. The soybean powder gives it a nice nutty flavour. They have an assortment of bubble teas and regular teas as well as cakes and waffles. The brown sugar milk tea is very creamy. Light tea flavour. The tapioca is soft and chewy and you're able to adjust the sugar and ice level. Super nice and bright atmosphere. Beautiful decor and the sense of comfort and home.

    I love The Bingsu! Both times I've visited the bingsu was really good :) I've triee the strawberry cheesecake, mango, and injeolmi bingsu, my favourite being the mango and injeolmi. I love strawberry cheesecake and cheesecake flavoured frozen desserts so I had high hopes for the strawberry bingsu but there was wayyy to much shaved ice in comparison to the toppings and hardly any cheesecake included. The mango one had really tasty ice cream on top and the mango chunks were heavenly, almost tasting like candy. The injeolmi one was yummy with a subtler and nuttier flavour. Perfect if you like things less sweet. The tteok on top was soooo good! The ambience and service is just average. Portions are good. Music can be loud sometimes. I prefer to sit outside. I would recommend:)

    Injeolmi shaved ice! 5/5

    Super fine shaved ice, which honestly feels like super airy & fluffy snow. Totally melt-in-your-mouth bingsu! I thought it was great value for the portions and toppings too. Tried their matcha almond and Injeolmi so far and I loved both!

    This store is located in Uptown Waterloo and is the first bingsu store in the Waterloo region! I tried their mango shaved ice which had mango chunks, mango ice cream, and mango syrup, topped with almond flakes. I absolutely loved the mango all the flavours here and I found the almond flakes to be a perfect addition as it added a nice texture! The atmosphere is bright and homey. A bit tight in the seating area but it is overall very clean!

    A staple dessert place that is slightly on the expensive side. Great for sharing. Mango sauce is a little too sweet

    Had a tiramisu bingsu - flavours were rich, and the contrast o crunchy and creamy was perfect. Recommended!!
