In Koreatowns modern culture, there isnt a more beloved or frequented after-dinner dessert than patbingsoo. The sweet shaved ice dish almost always starts with a dose of red adzuki beans atop a mound of snow-like ice. Modern variants have added things like fruit and even flavored ice, which gives the dessert a newfound Instagram appeal. In this episode of K-Town, host Matthew Kang travels to New York Citys Chinatown neighborhood for a new patbingsoo player named Sweet Moments. Eater intern James Park, a bona-fide Youtube sensation, joins Kang at the casual hangout spot and proceed to taste through three types of shaved ice. Park explains to Kang the three different waves of Korean shaved ice, from the most basic and straightforward to the most outlandish, photogenic type thats topped with watermelon balls and a pig-shaped meringue

I had this from time to time during my time in Seoul. It's tasty and a nice dessert to share with someone, but terribly overpriced. It's shaved ice with a bit of sauce and extras at the price of around US12-15. But yeah, they look fancy so everyone is going crazy about it.

Beautiful bingsu and Matt is a great host as usual but check out the Dining on a Dime episode where Lucas has _shave ice_ in Honolulu. Hawaii shave ice for the win.
