Discover the refreshing taste of bingsu at Cheevit Cheeva Dessert Cafe. Try the unique Salted Egg Yolk or fruity Melon Bingsu today!
While roaming around Siam Square in Bangkok, Thailand, we are looking for something refreshing to cool us down. We stumbled upon a cafe that serves bingsu and thought, why not try it for a change?
If you love sweets as much as I do, this place is a must-visit. We tried their two amazing bingsu flavors – the Salted Egg Yolk Bua-Loi Bingsu and the Melon Bingsu.
What is Bingsu?
Before we dive into the specifics, let’s talk a bit about bingsu. Bingsu is a Korean shaved ice dessert that’s perfect for cooling down on a hot day.
It’s not just any shaved ice; it’s super fine and fluffy, almost like snow. This icy treat is usually topped with sweet toppings like fruits, condensed milk, and various syrups.
Salted Egg Yolk Bua-Loi Bingsu
When I first saw the Salted Egg Yolk Bua-Loi Bingsu on the menu, I was curious. Salted egg yolk in a dessert? It sounded unique, so I had to try it.
What’s in it?
- Salted Egg Yolk Sauce: This creamy and slightly savory sauce is the star of this bingsu. It has a rich, custard-like texture and adds an unexpected twist to the sweet dessert.
- Bua-Loi: These are small, chewy rice flour balls often found in Thai desserts. They add a nice texture contrast to the smooth ice.
- Shaved Ice: The base is the classic fluffy shaved ice, which perfectly balances the rich flavors.
- Condensed Milk: Drizzled over the top, it adds a touch of sweetness to the overall dish.
Taste Experience
The first bite was a pleasant surprise. The salted egg yolk sauce wasn’t overwhelmingly salty; instead, it blended well with the sweet condensed milk and the delicate shaved ice. The bua-loi balls were fun to eat, giving each spoonful an interesting chewiness. If you’re looking for something different and exciting, this bingsu flavor is definitely worth a try.
Melon Bingsu
If you’re a fan of fresh fruits, this one is for you.
What’s in it?
- Fresh Melon: Generous chunks of sweet melon are the highlight of this bingsu. They’re juicy and refreshing.
- Melon Syrup: This adds an extra burst of melon flavor, making the dessert even more fragrant.
- Shaved Ice: The fluffy ice, as always, serves as the perfect base.
- Vanilla Ice Cream: A scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream on top adds richness and makes it even more indulgent.
Taste Experience
The Melon Bingsu was like a cool breeze on a hot day. The fresh melon pieces were incredibly refreshing, and the melon syrup enhanced their natural sweetness.
The vanilla ice cream added a creamy element that made each bite more satisfying. It’s a simple yet delicious choice, perfect for fruit lovers.
