A Hidden Gem for Red Bean Shaved Ice in Seogwipo: Nangman Patjip
Today, I visited a red bean shaved ice (patbingsu) 맛집 (delicious restaurant) tucked away in the residential area of Donghong-dong.
Nangman Patjip is known by those who appreciate patbingsu. And yes, it was delicious as always!

Closed Mondays and Tuesdays / Open 12:00 - 21:00
Public parking available right in front and next to the cafe.

It certainly lives up to its name, 'Nangman' (Romantic).
[Menu / Interior]
With a retro vibe, it was fun to look at old slogans and figures.
There's seating for about four groups, including the bar table.
Menu photos were posted next to the menu board.
They offer various kinds of shaved ice, but all of them come with a generous helping of red bean topping.
Even if you don't want shaved ice, they have a variety of ades, and the red bean slush also looked tasty.
It seems like they're no longer selling the glutinous rice cake skewers (찰떡구이). ????
I definitely want to try the red bean toast next time.
We decided on the Yogurt Patbingsu!
They said we didn't have to order one shaved ice per person.
The size is about right for one person, but the price is very reasonable, in the 7,000-8,000 KRW range.
Yogurt Red Bean Shaved Ice
I had it before and remembered it being delicious, so I tried it again and it was just as good.
I never would have thought that yogurt and red bean would go so well together,
but the red bean is just so delicious that it was a combination of something delicious + something delicious.
It was so good that we quickly finished it and decided to get another one: Black Sesame Patbingsu!
Hehe
Black Sesame Red Bean Shaved Ice
Unlike the trendy black sesame flavors these days that are finely ground with just a hint of flavor,
this one had sesame seeds sprinkled on top.
I enjoyed the texture of the sesame seeds, but it wasn't really my style.
Still, black sesame and red bean are a flavor combination that's hard to go wrong with.
The red bean itself is just perfectly sweet and incredibly delicious,
that I wanted to try everything: the red bean slush, the red bean toast, the green tea red bean shaved ice, everything!
We were only there for a short 30 minutes,
but there were 4 customers getting takeout and 2 groups dining in.
Is it worth making a special trip to Jeju Island for this?
When I travel, I tend to look for special places and tourist attractions,
so I probably wouldn't choose red bean shaved ice on a trip, but
this place is really
perfect for taking out and eating at your accommodation.
Instead of ordering Yoajeong for dessert when you come here,
eat red bean shaved ice.
The sweet red bean soup (danpatjuk), which they sell from October to May,
must be delicious too.
I'll have to come back and try everything on the menu!
It's even more romantic at night.
