Gangnam Dessert Cafe
Hangwa Warak, Full of Tradition and Emotion
Hello!
Today, I'm introducing "Hangwa Warak", a dessert cafe located between Gangnam Station and Sinnonhyeon Station!
These days, many people are looking for unique cafes or spaces with a good atmosphere rather than franchise cafes, right?
I visited because it was a hot place on social media, and to conclude, I'm "200% sure I'll revisit!"
Traditional Korean sweets (Hangwa) combined with modern gelato and latte create a very fresh combination.
Hangwa Warak is conveniently located about a 5-minute walk from both Gangnam Station and Sinnonhyeon Station, making it easily accessible.
It's a perfect meeting place for office workers, students, and couples!
The exterior of the cafe is simple, but inside, it has a charming warm atmosphere that blends tradition and modernity appropriately. The wooden furniture and subtle lighting make it a great place to spend a relaxing time.
Traditional props are placed throughout the cafe, making it fun to look around. It feels like a space where you can take a break from the hustle and bustle of Gangnam, which I like!
There are many types of desserts, so it is suitable for all ages. Perfect for gifts!
I tried these menu items this time, and I'll introduce them one by one!
✅ Gaeseong Juak
The crispy exterior and chewy interior texture is charming!
It has a slightly fried texture, but it's not greasy at all, and the sweet Jocheong syrup is well absorbed, making it an addictive menu item.
As a traditional dessert, the subtly spreading nutty flavor is perfect to enjoy with coffee ❤️
✅ Sweet Potato Juak
The sweetness is enriched by adding sweet potato!
It's softer than Gaeseong Juak, and the natural sweetness of sweet potato comes up as you eat it, making it a hearty snack.
It's sweet yet savory, so personally, this is my favorite menu ❤️
✅ Jar Gelato
From the visuals that come in a small ceramic jar, it captivates your eyes!
The design is great for taking pictures, and the gelato is chewy, soft, and savory. It goes well with traditional Korean sweets, so it was very refreshing.
The savory grain powder topped on top adds flavor, and the finish is clean without being greasy.
I've never seen anything like this among Gangnam desserts ❤️
✅ Warak Cream Latte
Lastly, I chose "Warak Cream Latte" for the coffee!
The combination was perfect; it's sweet on the first sip, and then the strong coffee flavor comes alive!
It went well with the dessert without being greasy ❤️
The menu prices are average for Gangnam cafes, and the jar gelato is particularly satisfying for the price because of its special visuals!
Juak was good considering the quality and quantity, and I also liked the latte because of its rich flavor. Overall, considering the visuals, taste, and atmosphere, I think it's a cafe that's worth it!
