Monthly outing with my friend and we picked this place for its delicious desserts! They did not disappoint. We got two half and half" chubby waffles and shared them both to try out all the flavours we could. The waffles were cooked to perfection. The strawberry flavouring was definitely number one for both. The Lavender Earl Grey and chocolate cookie was tied for second place. Their yogurt beverage was also quite tasty and prices were fairly reasonable. Would definitely come back to try their other flavours."

Got the strawberry and mango waffles and enjoyed both flavors. The waffles themselves tasted great and were cooked perfectly. The strawberry cream they used was also good. The mango ice cream seemed to be your run of the mill store bought kind, which is okay with me, we still enjoyed it.The dalgona iced latte was good although not sure I'd order it again. I'd probably try a regular iced latte next time.

The aesthetics for this small cafe are very cute and bright. The food menu is a spectrum of sweets or savory waffles and fried corn dogs/cheeseThe drinks menu is a very Asian infusion, which compliments the food selection. My only feedback is the milk steamed to lukewarm temperatures, and the car parking is slightly challenging due to tight it is when in full capacity.

We tried the sausage and cheese corn dogs with potato and half and half waffles. The corn dogs came out hot and crispy. Sauces were self serve in the front. Both the cheese and sausage dogs were 5/5 tasty. The cheese one melted half way through to be held on a stick though. I think half sausage half cheese would be better to hold it together. The potato added extra crunch and were very good.The waffle was a miss for us. The texture of the cream was grainy. Seems like they added some sort of flavoring powder to get the strawberry and matcha taste into whipped cream but it wasn't all dissolved. It was just a strange texture to eat as we expected a smooth cream. We weren't too impressed with the waffle either. With the waffle being $9, it was underwhelming. I don't recommend it even if the cream would have been smooth at this price point.Service was just mediocre. I thought it would have been nice if they provided some explanation when ordering like for the sauces and such. I may return for the corndogs but skip waffles.

To be honest, I really miss the old BingSu that used to be here. But Basak is a pleasant surprise too.Their waffles with cream is very refreshing. A bit heavy but it's worth a try! Their ice cream one is even lighter and is very fun to eat.They even have Korean corn dogs!! The staff there, Ellie, was really nice and explained the menu to us. She was also very kind to us.The prices are quite expensive and the taste/aesthetics isn't outstanding but it's worth coming. The interior design is BEAUTIFUL.

I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while! The parking lot is tiny and was full so it was quite the drive to turn around. I recommend parking in the Korea Town Center parking lot and walking to the cafe to avoid any trouble.We got the half & half rice dog with potato and the half & half chubby waffle (strawberry and earl grey lavender). Everything was served on a cute wooden tray. I really liked the asthetic of everything :)I really enjoyed the ricedog! The cheese was super stretchy and the portion was large. There is a sauce bar where you can help yourself. I definitely recommend the potato add-on.The waffle was delightful! So much cream. The waffle was thin and crispy.There is also a cute little photo opp section in the cafe.

First time here. I've been wanting to try rice corn dogs for a while, and found this place. They did not disappoint. I got half cheese/half sausage with potato. The cheese was nice and melty and the sausage kept the whole thing on the stick and was a nice change halfway through the corn dog. Definitely had a bit more structural integrity than my friends' which was all cheese and started to slide off the stick halfway through. IMO half n half is the way to go. Delicious with the sauces as well. The lavender earl grey waffle was pretty good, not as good as the corn dog for me but I still enjoyed it. The waffle was crispy and the cream was soft and fluffy and subtly flavoured. Not too sweet either. I will definitely be coming back to try more things!

Cute cafe but just okay. Mocha was tasty. The green tea with red bean waffle was just fine. The green tea whipped cream didn’t taste strong and the waffle itself is quite thin and cold when we ate it. Quite pricey at $9.

Good place to have a snack and chat with friends. Be aware there is not a lot of outside immediate parking. The inside is also small so wouldn't be able to accommodate many people. Highlights for me was the dalgona though the Korean dogs were good too.

Not really sure how this place can be disliked. Came here with a friend a while ago and honestly we indulged. We felt like we could go for more and more. The flavours are just so perfect and delicious. The place itself is cute and intimate as well.
