BINGKI ! 

I was initially skeptical about the whole bingsu craze, because it just seemed like overrated ice kachang.

More so after I tried places like O'ma spoon, and Nunsongyee - which was the worst, in my opinion.

All of them tasted like I expected - shaved ice with toppings on top.

That being said, at least O'ma Spoon's shaved ice had a slight hint of milky flavour, 

unlike NSY, which you needed to pour the milk yourself, and so ended up unevenly distributed.

On a random whim after our Tori King Ramen Keisuke, we decided to give BINGKI a try.

This Bimb was already on a bingsu spree, 

cause she was eating at 313's Ice Lab only the day AND 2 days before! hahahah.

Menu!

Ordered 2 types to try - Mango and Watermelon - $15 each

Bimb was actually hesitant to order the mango in case it was sour, 

so she dee siao the korean waiter and asked him if the mango was sweet or not.

Poor guy obviously didn't understand such chim sentences, HAHAH so he was like ????

His colleague had to step in to save him LOLOL.

And later on when he delivered the bingsu to our table, he commented "Mango sweet, very sweet!"

BWAHAHAHA no it turned out sour #laughdieme

Bimb: "Is this supposed to be Pooh Bear?" 

HAHAHAH I hope not omg #差太远了

Looks more like Boss instead.

Watermelon is my favourite!

Both flavours had super fine shavings of milky ice, which was not too sweet and cloying.

I've never had bingsu in Korea, but this is definitely another level from what I've tried so far.

And I love how the fruits are fresh and juicy!

Well, the sour mango wasn't actually that bad, just not totally ripey sweet if you get what I mean :B

Yay first bingsu try with #bimbgluttonboss #pluspok !

Second time was with Manlin, and we ordered the Green Tea - $15  

Same with the previous time; fine shavings of light green tea milk ice.

No improvement with the art deco hahahaha.

Third time - after dinner with these crazies!
Friday nights are super crowded and this time we had to queue around 20 min.

LOL at that time Pokemon Go was still quite popular,
so me pok and bowei actually went roaming to catch a Jynx and Onix HAHAH.

Make a I'm-seriously-writing-for-bingsu face !

Omg bowei HAHAH.

Resting bitch face on hahahahah

Bimb's like YOU WANNA FIGHT?! 

Janchi Bingsu - $22

Mountain of shaved milky ice, topped with almonds, blueberries, grapes, mango, rockmelon and watermelon.
This was ginormous!
Enough for 7 of us to share comfortably so it was pretty value for money :D
And it's Instagram worthy too hahahaha.

Definitely would recommend this for larger groups.

As a gauge this bowl can fit my #buddingyeast's face, so yup it's big *bwahahah ;p*
 

BINGKI is definitely my to-go place for bingsu!

However, I've also come across some recent reviews on their fb, 

who are complaining about the service and quality of the food.

Hopefully BINGKI will be able resolve their issues,
because they definitely have the potential to go far in Singapore's competitive cafe industry.
