Pat (Red Bean) Specialty Bingsu Shop

A small bingsu café situated on a street corner, its entrance shaded by a cream-colored awning gives a fresh impression. Sunlight streaming through the full-length windows brightly illuminates the interior, and wooden chairs and tables along with rattan lampshades on the ceiling create a cozy atmosphere. The menu board decorated with round handwriting and bingsu illustrations lists a variety of bingsu from old-fashioned pat bingsu to injeolmi, matcha, and fresh mango. The signature Snowflake Pat Bingsu is a single-serving bingsu with finely shaved milk ice topped generously with homemade red bean paste and apple jam on top; the red bean is not too sweet and smoothly mashed, blending well with the nutty flavor of the milk ice. Adding apple jam brings a sweet-and-sour taste that keeps it from getting boring to the last spoonful, and the red bean can be refilled. The display case also offers croffles, dacquoise, and homemade syrup for ades, making it a great place to rest after visiting Dongju Bookstore and Dakbatgol Mural Village.
