Partially worried about being served durian essence-based fare or artificial durian, we were pleased that Hanbing delivered with the legit stuff. The ice cream tasted like it was made with actual durian but the highlight was the Musang King semmifreddo that was also doled out in generous portions. What the Fox?!

Could there be a more appropriate antidote than this to an oppressively humid afternoon? 🥵🍉

Their signature dish. This was the best of the 3 desserts.

I hardly have bingsu, so I'm only now noticing that it's milky shaved ice.

Third time trying bingsu, and first time trying injeolmi anything. Injeolmi is a Korean rice cake which is also used in frosty desserts like bingsu. This one was dusted with roasted soybean powder and topped with azuki bean paste and a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

BRIEF: “Ai Yu/ Tapioca/Taro/Sweet Potato Ball” SOOT’S TAKE: “Refreshing, but the Ai Yu jelly had an unexpected citron taste which I could’ve done without.”

Not such a fan of the flavor in the shaved ice but the mango cubes were good.

BRIEF: “Indulge in a velvety dark chocolate delight that’s perfectly balanced with a touch of salt.” SOOT’S TAKE: Chocolaty but not in a sea salty kind of way.

Shaved ice doused in green tea syrup. 🍵

Refreshing if you’re thirsty on a swelteringly hot day. Otherwise, the flavors are rather one note.

If we can celebrate an island-nation’s birthday with this, why not mine as well? 🥳
