bingsu is one of our go-to desserts, lalo kung disappointing yung dinner namin. hobing is one of our faves, and so far it hasn't let us down! our frequent orders include: mango cheese, strawberry, and banana mango. pero sa review na 'to focus tayo sa salted caramel. (in picture)
antamis, sing tamis nung jowa mo nung bago palang kayo! masarap naman siya pero medyo overload na sa tamis, specially because they included caramelized casoy, vanilla ice cream, and salted caramel. we much prefer the mango cheese or banana mango over this kasi nga nasobrahan na sa sweetness. okay din sana yung strawberry pero di kasi fresh yung fruit nila the two times we ordered it; may slightly medicinal taste na.
overall, okay na okay pa din! cravings for sweets satisfied with a refreshing, budget-friendly dessert.

The Bingsu at Hobing are better compare to the Bingsu I've eaten from other Korean restaurants. Thankfully, the ice underneath the nice designs (fruit, cream and powder) you can still taste the flavor you ordered. Though you have to wait patiently as they're preparing this Art Dessert.
When it comes to Bingsu, its Hobing for me. Whenever I crave for Bingsu, sa hobing lang ako lagi pumupunta. And if I crave for Tteokboki, Hobing padin. They serve one of the best Spicy Rice Cake. My favorite is Injeolmi. I always order it. 🥰

My go-to place whenever I crave for tteokbokki and bingsu. Best tteokbokki I've tasted so far. 👌🏻 Their regular bingsu is already good for sharing. Milk Redbean Bingsu is a must try if you're not in the mood for Mango or Strawberry bingsu
Hobing has been a 'go to' place for us after dinner whenever we're in megamall. The generous serving and flavor is so satisfying. Kudos to the owner and the friendly staff
I've been trying Hobing since they first opened in Megamall! The servings are really good for sharing. They also have different flavors for everyone. I'm personally not into chocolate and super sweet desserts so I liked the soy powder + mochi in my bingsu. I also liked how the syrup was separate so we got to control the sweetness.
A go to place after having a heavy dinner. These Korean Desserts are a must try!
Located at the Mega Fashion Hall, it is usually full at some days. I highly recommend their Mango and Brownie flavors. The Strawberry Cheesecake is okay but I like the other two better.
You can order a regular size and its actually good for two already. We got the large orders and we were 7 at the time. 🤣
When we're talking about refreshing dessert it is definitely Hobing! The ambience is really great if you are a kpop fan They have a screen showing your favorite KPOP MVs. The Bingsu's are worth sharing for 2-3 persons. I think the price is reasonable given the quality of the dessert.

Well lit and clean. Fast service. As with all Hobings, must try would be injeolmi bingsu and mango cheese bingsu. I could finish one large order all by myself!
Curiousity striked again! Bingsoo as they call it. I always go to the mall and always seeing a lot of people eating here. So we have tried one with rhe mango. It is a shaved ice with a lot of toppings. Taste is sweet but not too sweet it is balanced with some sourness of the mango. Servings is large that can be shared. The ice is so soft that you can no longer tell it is a shaved ice 😊. Two thumps up for this. Craving for more 😆
good place for Korean dessert! the ambiance of the place is okay
It’s worth the price though, you can buy one large bingsu and can be shared by 2-4 persons or more?
We’ve ordered one of their best sellers which is Mango & Cheese and I can say it’s good! it’s not that sweet (my preference) & not your typical crushed ice dessert.
We ordered mango cheesecake bingsu and bulgogi maki. For the bingsu, pino yung yelo nya tapos matamis pero yung na order namin yung manga is maasim. Siguro dahil last minute na kami kumain, closing nayung mall. Good for 3 nayung large, then sa maki naman medyo nakaka dissapoint lang yung rice kasi parang hilaw sya. Diko alam kung ganun ba talaga luto nila dun, mahilig kasi ako sa maki, usually ang mga nakakain ko is sakto lang yung pagkaluto ng rice. Pero malalasa mo yung bulgogi, instagramable yung foods nila.
Mango Cheese Bingsu is the best! If you’re looking for different twist of dessert from Korea try this shop. This is the place where you want to chill.
Not a fan at first. But since this is the default place of my friend, I’ve gotten to try a few items which fit my taste. My fave is their mango cheese bingsu. Yum! Not too sweet but enough to cleanse the palate. They have generous servings that I can share the small size too. I like how Korean dessert offers more than chocolate-y sweets. Pleasant and polite servers and relaxed vibe.
If you want a refreshing dessert I suggest To visit Hobing. I like be the fine texture of its shaved ice desserts. My personal favorite here is the match. Price may look expensive but the serving is good for two to three persons depending on the appetite.
Awesome Yummy ice dessert that's great to share with friends.
Hobing has the best ice shavings that reminds me of snow flakes that just melts in your tongue.
Get the large size and share with your a couple of friends. Or maybe get 2 different flavors and savor this icy delight.
Best Pick are the Mango Cheese, Strawberry and Choco Brownie Bingsu.
"The taste of heaven"
For the price of 280 pesos, I got to taste heaven.
Their serving is quite small for the price but what is inside compensates it all.
Gonna totally eat this again.
The store crew are nice and welcoming and they serve fast. Though their outlet is kinda small so I could see it if the store is in its high time that the store would be crowded. So I hope they will get to expand soon.
Will definitely visit to taste other food and flavours on the menu.
The first time I ate here, their place was still small but now they moved to a bigger place. The serving size is really "sulit" and good for groups. I've tried 3 flavors already and they're all tasty. 👍🏻 I'm just sad with the sour mangoes. 😂
We went here last time to try their Mango flavor ice cream or something.
We ordered the Regular one and it’s quite big for a regular which was surprised me.
The taste okay the mango quite maasim but nice.
Maybe next time we will try their iced blended and other flavor of the ice cream. :)
The prices of bingsu are reasonable enough because they have big servings. You could stay there for awhile because aside from being big, it's also too cold to be consumed in a snap.
I also find its interior cute and fitting though the blue light makes it hard to take selfies for it makes your skintone look weird. But if you only came for food, it will be the last thing on your mind, not a big deal.
This is my first time to try Hobing's bingsu. We ordered 3 bingsu and we didn't know that 1 regular serving can be shared by 2-3 person. So this is an FYI. 😁 because we had a hard time finishing it since we're just 5 people. But it's a nice experience for me! I can say I'll go back and try their other flavors. 😊

Me and my friends order mango cheese bingsu in here. It taste good and delicious, it's just most of mangoes are a bit sour. But i like the milk shake and the cheese. 😂😍
Whenever my friends and I craved for something sweet while we were at SM Megamall, we used to visit Hobing! And Hobing never fail to surprise us. Each of their Bingsu has rich flavors of shaved frozen milk.
Taste/Food: Heavenly taste, visually appealing and perfectly fine ice texture!
Place: The place was a bit small. Wait for other cxs to leave and save table for you before ordering.
Ambiance/staffs: Korean greetings and K-pop music videos playing on tv makes the ambiance great. Staffs are kinda slow.
Price: Exceeding your expectations for Regular size P200+ and Large size P300+ (prices vary depend on flavors), i believed thats reasonable and acceptable.
A must try for ice cream lovers 👍

Place is a little bit congested but it's still fine. Servers were pleasing and friendly. The bing su that we had was right in size. I was glad that it wasn't too sweet as well. Everything was good in this visit. A lil pricey for a dessert like this tho. Had a lower price of the same enjoyment somewhere else.
The place is somewhat like those of cafes. Korean OSTs (with K-drama scenes), as well as K-Pop music videos were being shown on the TV screens.
Food presentation was very nice. Surprised that the bingsu that I ordered has chocolate ice shavings (not just regular ice shavings, like the ones you see in Pinoy halo-halo) making its taste richer. It also doesn't melt quickly, unless of course you mix it.
It got boring when I was halfway from finishing my regular bowl of Chocolate Cookie bingsu, but that's just probably because everything we ordered were chocolate-flavored.
Will definitely go back here, and try the other flavors.
Went there yesterday with my friends and tried the strawberry bingsu and matcha bingsu. Large size is P360 its quite expensive but it l’s good for sharing. We also ordered the bulgogi kimbap cost P200, it’s really good and the price is really worth it since it’s really delicious.
The only problem is the place is a bit hot but still overall is good, the ambience,food and staffs were really nice.
We’ll return there soon and try their tteokbokki and other bingsu flavor.
One of the best bingsu places I tried! Servings are ginormous and is enough for three people. Ice used is cloud-like. Fruits are sweet and yummy. Will be back again!
Panalo to. Haha! Ok ang serving. Maasim lang ang strawberry, pero ganun talaga, Pinas e. Nakakain na din ako sa sm north branch, and to compare, mas generous ang serving dito sa megamall.
Authentic Bingsu experience!!! I have tried a lot of Bingsu in the Metro but Hobing’s still in the top list.
PRO TIP: Order extra bowl of cheesecake for Php 60 only! 🤗🤗🤗
Same as their other branches, Hobing offers the coziest place where you can enjoy their best Bingsu choices. My friend and I tried their Strawberry and Matcha Bingsu for a change (since I'm more into chocolate Bingsu). I have no words to express how delicious their Bingsus are. They are all good!
One of the best desserts! Shave ice for the win. The ice has milk and doesn't even feel ike ice when you taste it. Its very rich and creamy and milky. I love the mango and strawberry flavor. 👌🏼
It was our first time to try bingsu and Hobing did not disappoint us. It became our benchmark in rating other bingsu available in other restaurants.
The sweetness is not too much for each flavor. Mango is our favorite so far. We're glad that they now have a bigger place in Megamall!
their tteokbokki is 💯 a must try! the spicyness matches with their bingsu and you all should definitely try the mango cheese flavor ❤️ bingsu regular is actually good for 2 already

I'm not really into the korean craze myself, even with the sudden rise of kdramas, korean heart and everything in-between. But I do have quite the sweet tooth and always have enough room for dessert ALWAYS.
Hobing's Bingsu is truly a must-try and we always come back here to eat every week, either to cap off a meal or if we just want something sweet.
I can describe their Bingsu as a love child of Halo-Halo and Icecream. The ice is thinly shaved, smooth and creamy af. It truly melts in your mouth.They also offer generous amounts of fruit and as you dig through their Bingsu, SURPRISE there's more fruits inside.
I promise you this dessert will knock your socks off everyone!!
I love strawberries a lot and their strawberry bingsu is worth a try! Two thumbs up! Yet, the plave is too crowded since the space only has a small floor area, I think they need a little expansion if there's a chance :3 💜 Will definately come back again next time!
We ordered a large berry berry cheese bingsoo and we were not disappointed. The serving was huge and can be consumed by 2 people. The only let down was the relatively steep pricing compared to other desert stores. I still think that 380 is too much for a bowl of ice and fruits 😅
First time we tried Hobing and fortunately, we got seats available for us! The place was really small that you don't have much time to enjoy your food as you watch K-Pop on their big screen. ☹️ Would've love to overstay but people do flock at different times so gotta give them some seats (hoping this would lead to the store's future expansion LOL just joking 😂)
Nonetheless, the bingsu was great! And they also have Tteokkboki (spicy rice cake) on their menu! Unfortunately, I've got no photos from our visit here.
First time to try bingsu and I'm glad it's Hobing. We ordered Injoelmi, Mango Cheese and Choco brownie, all large and we were just 5.
Since it was my first time, I honestly expected bingsu to taste more like ice. But I was surprised that it tasted like shredded frozen milk if such thing exists. Overall, Injoelmi tasted better compared to Mango cheese and choco brownie. The 5 of us had a hard time finishing what we ordered because it's literally large. Hence, Hobing is a must try especially if you're with friends.
My friend and I ordered:
Choco cookie and the mango cheesecake bingsu. Both are amazing. Perfectly made. It will give you the feels of relief and happiness.
Will try other flavors soon. :)
During our dinner out, my officemate invited us to go in Hobing. Honestly, I have no idea what Hobing is. Just discovered it's a bingsu cafe when we arrived. My officemate ordered mango&cheese and matcha. Not really a fan of matcha so I didn't bother to try it out, but the mango&cheese is really good, especially i'm a sucker for mangoes. 💕
I looovveee this place! 😍😍😍 I didn't know shaved ice could taste this good. We really enjoyed the strawberry cheese bingsu and the red bean bingsu. The ice was really smooth and it's such a delight to eat this wonderful Korean dessert. ❤️

After a long and exhausting walk around the mall, my friend invited me to come and try the bingsus here. I didn't refuse because after all, it's my first time trying it out. We ordered the Caramel Coffee bingsu. It's good enough for two people to share.
I love how there's so many nuts in our bingsu. And I love how they put their coffee in syringes, what a playful and creative way to eat! I really liked it, not too sweet and has definitely a crunch in it. The place was small but nice. They play korean music videos in the television. And they have self-service lemon-flavored water.
It was a nice experience. Will come back to try more of their flavors!
From chocolates to brownies, strawberries, bananas and green tea, every bowl of bingsu have me a taste of Korea! Order their chocolate-flavored ones and you'll never go wrong.
Try the mango and cheese and the injeolmi bingsu. The bingsu here is so good that my diabetic father always seeks it out. Highly recommended.
Hobing is ♡. Cravings satisfied in this place. The taste of their bingsu is absolutely mouth watering. I love the generosity of the fruit and chocolate toppings. Even how the food looks is already satisfying. Though it took some time to serve it, i must say it was worth the wait. Its price is a bit high, but it leaves you without regrets. I notice that the large size is good for sharing. :) My friend and i ordered two small sizes, different kinds as we wanted to try almost everything. :) And the service can surely be improved, but nonetheless it was fine.

Hobing is the BEST place to fulfill your cravings for bingsu! (Their ddeokbokki and rabokki are worth the try too btw!)
Their bingsu is definitely worth it for its price! Plus, they don't make tipid on their toppings.
I highly recommend their Injeolmi Bingsu! It has a somewhat nutty-sweet taste that is not overpowering, if you don't find it sweet enough... they normally serve it with some milk/condensed milk.
I'd recommend their Strawberry Bingsu and Berry Cheese Bingsu if you're more into more fruity bingsu (or fruity flavors in general). Plus, the middle part of the bingsu still has ingredients inside (some places only have fruit on the top!).
Their Ube Bingsu is worth the try if you're fond of Ube. I especially liked the ice cream, it's very rich and packed of Ube flavor. However, I think I'd still prefer the typical Halo-Halo over this one.
Their ddeokbokki/rabokki are also quite good. If you're fond of spicy foods... you may not find it THAT spicy.. but it is definitely spicer than that of their competitors!
I was hesitant to go here before because it looks expensive to me. So when my Korean bf arrived last month, I took him here (so he can treat me.. hehe) We ordered the large strawberry bingsu and tteokbokki. It was a perfect match. The serving was good for 3 persons but we're able to eat everything haha... I like how generous it was given. There are plenty of strawberries and a lot of whip cream. The ice was perfectly shaved and you can really taste the milk, unlike the other restaurants offering bingsu but the ice doesn't have any taste of milk at all. The tteokbokki was perfect for me. It's not so spicy and I love the cheese on it. My bf didn't have any complaints. He said it was good, just like in Korea's. I think I will come back again so I can try the matcha flavored one. haha

Bingsu is definitely a food trend here in the philippines. So If you want to try it without breaking ur savings, Hobing is probably one of the best places to go. They serve this korean shaved ice dessert with quality and quantity!
I aint kidding with the quality and quantity. One regular bowl is enough for 2 persons (assuming that you're having this for dessert and not as a meal it self lol). We had the Choco Cookie bingsu, and we were not disappointed! It's packful of chocolate and cookie flavor. My guy described it as 'parang chuckie' (referring to the shaved ice). They topped it with whipped cream and chocolate icecream!!
It can get really cold at the area while eating this dessert because just right from above floor is the skating rink lol
Ambiance and serving was good! It isnt a big place.. it's enough for the number of customers they expect per day (i guess). They have this self service water lemon station which was rly nice. Also, a TV wherein they play kpop MVs.
Place - it's a small place however it felt comfy. Lighting and ambiance is good w/ k-pop music. Seatings were few but it was somehow comfortable.
Service - staff were ok. A little bit unattentive but they served our order in less than 15 minutes.
Food - i ordered the strawberry bingsu and an additional cheesecake for 40php. I really liked the strawberry bingsu, the tanginess of the strawberry is matching with the creamy taste of the milky shaved ice. What i kinda don't like is the cheesecake, it tasted bland.
Great place for dessert with family or friends. I love how generous their toppings are, and the quality of the milky ice shavings is legit Bingsu. So yummy and addicting! Service is great too!
We ordered Caramel Coffee and Mango Cheese. Both were really good. The only downside were the sour mangoes. Of course we expected sweet, ripe mangoes right? But its ok. The cheesecake slices and whipped cream made up for it.
Hobing had a fun vibrant venue. I ordered their Strawberry Bingsu, and was surprised at how quick I received my order considering how many people had ordered before I did. They also give you separate bowls if you plan to share the Bingsu. However, I loved how many fresh strawberries were used in the Bingsu and how balanced the sweetness of the dish was. The milk ice was super finely shaved and the whipped cream upped the creaminess of everything mixed together. The only downside was how quickly it melted. So, better eat quick!
Choco brownies bingsu tastes good and sweet. I think the large serving can be good for 2-3 persons and the ice in the bingsu tastes like frozen chocolate, too. Tteokbokki tastes good, too and it's sweet and spicy. ☺
Asked for strawberry and the chocolate one, got what we wanted, walked out happy!
Their 'small' size is already enough for two people and they won't tear a hole in your wallet.
Ho bing Korea dessert ... my favorite resto always ✔️ super yummy . At sm megamall
Strawberry Bingsu ✔️✔️✔️
225 pesos (R)
Bingsu craving brought me to hobing. The place was tiny but quaint. The service wasn't bad considering there were a lot of people at the time i came.
I got choco cookie bingsu. It was very sweet. Too sweet for me. Not the best. I still like cafe seolhwa better.
Milk Redbean Bingsu is still the best in this place. Shared my bingsu with my dear friend, we had the large bowl for P290. Iced shavings has milk that is perfect for the sweetened red beans😋 plus it has this chewy rice cake on top. Still the best♥️
I like their teokkbokki and its delicious sausages. It's a bit overpriced, though. I also fell in love with their injeolme bingsu. If I don't have diabetes I would frequent Hobing for it.
Food: The usual Korean food, pero ang highlight eh yung toreng Bingsu nila sa dami ng shaved ice at fruit toppings. Brain freeze!
Place: Maliit at konti ang chairs
Price: kung bingsu ang oorderin, sulit. Pero yung Rabboki, medyo bitin
Overall: 🌟🌟🌟🌟
I love bingsu! I've been to other branch (lucky chinatown) which is really huge and they have teddy bears also for you to take pictures with! But here in megamall, they have limited seating capacity. Although when we came, some of the tables just got vacant so we were seated na din agad. We ordered large Mango and Choco Cookie bingsu for a group of 6, sulit na! Quite didn't like the chocolate shaved.

1st ever korean dessert restaurant that I've been to and also one of the best. We had their mango cheese cake and their chocolate flavored bingsu and I swear sobrang sarap niya. We also had tteokboki here and it was yumny as well. I recommend this place to you guys, though the space is a little small, the food would make it up to you.
First time to try bingsu and good thing it happened at Hobing Korean Dessert Cafe. I ordered a regular Mango Cheese Bingsu. "Why just regular?", you ask. It's because I can't finish an entire large bowl. If you could only see their large-sized bowl in actual... it's huge -- like 'good-for-2-to-3 persons' huge! As for the taste, its sweetness is just right and every ingredient melts in your mouth perfectly. Oh lastly, mango and cheese: it's a winning combination! Can't wait to try the rest!
P.S. Your location: It's quite small to accommodate everyone. I saw the staff bringing bingsus to the bowling area (if I'm not mistaken) because all tables were already occupied and some customers preferred to sit and eat there. Lol

Because the stomach is not acting up anymore after a month and a few weeks, I was finally able to try bingsu! This one's the Injeolmi Bingsu (인절미 빙수) - ice shavings with milk topped with glutinuous rice cakes (tteok), cashews, chopped almonds and kinako (roasted soy flour). It's really delicious!
The one in the photo is their large size, which is good for sharing.
I think the reason why the other flavors take quite some time to be served is because the toppings are being arranged properly and beautifully to be presentable and Instagram-able. I'll be trying the other flavors next time as they all look soooo appetizing.
New fav korean dessert!!!!! All my friends could say was "Ang sarap!" 😂😂😂 We trie Mango Cheese Bingsu, Cheese Bingsu and Choco Brownie Bingsu. My favorite would be the Cheese bingsu, it has the right amount of sweetness. This place is perfect for catching up with a huge group of friends since the desserts are best for sharing. ☺️
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
My brothers and I decided to go here to try out their Bingsu (a popular dessert in Korea which is composed of ice shavings and some various ingredients or flavors), according to him that every time he passed by it's always crowded so we decided to go there as early as we can before things get a little crowdy. The moment we got there I just noticed that Hobing Korean Dessert Cafe has a little space but good thing there's less people at that time.
We decided to order Choco Brownie and Strawberry Bingsu, both regular in size and I must say that the serving is quite plenty for the three of us. I like how presentable their serving was and how I can taste the flavors of their bingsu.
The Choco Brownie Bingsu will really satisfy your cravings for chocolates not only because it is chocolate flavored bingsu but also because of its chewy and moist brownies,YUMMY!!!. On the other hand, The Strawberry Bingsu has that creaminess in it that really makes me want to have another round plus the fact that the strawberry served that time was fresh, perfect timing indeed.
Splendid job, Tummy satisfied and Sweets Craving solved!!!

Tried the choco brownie bingsu. It was really good. And worth the price. I could actually share the regular size with my sister. But then it became my fav. Thats why I chose to eat it by myself😅😅
Chocolate Brownie Bingsu is heaven!! Super worth the price and it melts in your mouth deliciously. #HoBing #KoreanDessert #ChocolateBrownieBingsu
Enjoyed our time here. The place is a bit small, some people had to wait outside for their turn.
We ordered the choco cookie bingsu. It took a while for our order to get to the table. When it finally did, we were surprised by how large the order was.
It tasted really good, loved the ice cream on top. Husband concluded that our bingsu took a long time to prepare because of the flavor that we chose.
Their large size is actually good for 3 people. We could not finish ours. Will definitely go back here to try the mango flavor.
Hobing Korean Dessert, is always a good choice. Actually their regular size which is good for 1 is already good for two. Lot's of flavors to choose from. Love it

Had dessert with one of my best friends here the other night. We were actually planning on getting some FroYo when Hobing caught our eye.
Right beside Mochi Cream, this dessert place was filled with people--family, friends & couples. It's a pretty small space and got too crowded easily.
Would have been great if there was a little more effort put into their menu. Maybe it would be better if they use bigger pictures and put a few lines to describe the food items.
My friend and I decided to try their Mango & Cheesecake Bing Su. I've had this with other friends in Bangkok and wanted to try the one here. Plus, it's their Bestseller as well.
It took ages for our order to arrive. If I were alone I would have already stormed out of there after 30 minutes of waiting for 1 item.
There were hardly 10 orders at a time and it really made me wonder what was holding them up.
Also, the tables were all sticky and wobbly. Anybody can easily make a mess and spill their food.
Now, the dessert tasted great. Although we felt it's a bit overpriced, especially because it only had a few pieces of cheese and it didn't even seem like they put 1 mango's worth of slices in there.
It's a great way to beat the heat, but waiting will really test your patience too.

The location is at the 2nd to the top floor of mega mall fashion hall near vikings. The store itself was actually small and recalling from my photographic memory, there are about 7 tables for 2 (or for 3 if added by a table) inside and about 2 tables good for 4 inside. Unlike any other restaurants, a single table could actually accomodate about 4 persons since their well known bingsu doesnt take too much space in table
so before i give my personal thoughts on my experience i would like to give you some few reminders on how it goes and what it is. you just basically sit then choose from the flavors of bingsu but what should you expect from a bingsu? well guys, it is quite simple. a shaved ice with some toppings. to simplify the visualization for my co pinoys, its basically like our ver own halo halo but with a few jist such as the difference in the ingredient.
for the servings, a regular bowl of bingsu can actually accommodate two consumers but take note that it wouldn't give you the full blast of your sweet tooth's journey but can satisfy your tummies. their bingsu ice was one of a kind and trust me on that one! it is literally somewhere between an ice shave and an ice cream.the two flavors that we have tried was actually recommended to me by my friend and i guess she got it right that "CHOCOLATE BROWNIE" would give you the exciting sweet flavor while the "STRAWBERRY BINGSU" gives you that fruity flavor to cut off the satiation you might get from the chocolate brownie.
All in all. it was worth the comeback and good for a simple chitchats with friends since this one is generally a good toshare food.

Enjoyed my dessert. Although it seems to be a little price for 'shaved ice', the quality of ingredients are well worth it. I got the soy powder with mochi. I LOVED it! It was refreshing and perfectly sweet.
My only comment for this place is i hope they dont ask customers to leave after eating. There are signs on the wall that people should limit their stay. I understand that the management would want a quicker turnover, but i personally think its bad form to ask people to scoot.
The place was packed during our visit and we waited outside by the waiter for a table. We explicitely said well just wait for things to clear up since we just came from dinner anyway. He still insisted that there were seats available, but then asked a big group to leave! Server mentioned that since 'theyve been sitting for 10mins' after finishing their dessert. They left angry and we felt embarrassed.
We went here the other night to have dessert and we ordered their mango cheese bingsu. I'm not really a fan of shaved ice but when I tasted their bingsu, I've changed my mind, it was really good. It wasn't too sweet and it was creamy.
Will go back here to try their other flavors.
A couple of classmates from school had been obsessed with Hobing for weeks now and that prompted me to try it out. After lunch I wanted something sweet (I've always had a sweet tooth and a need for something sweet after every meal) and finally decided to taste this phenomenal bingsu.
I ordered the large mango one to share with a friend while my other friend ordered the mango cheesecake one in regular size. When it arrived it definitely looked delectable. It was a bit disappointing, to be honest. It was basically frozen milk, which I usually love. I found it a bit bland, like a melted milkshake sans any flavoring. The mangoes were quite sour, but that was a bit expected.
Overall, I might try it again, albeit in another flavor. I don't understand the hype, but it definitely helps beat the heat.
Let's be honest, most of us couldn't take the heat here, right? But do we have any other choice? Since we are in/living in a tropical country why not just take advantage of it and enjoy the cold foods specifically, cold desserts. ❤
Great place to hang out with friends and even with your family. The store has television so you can enjoy korean desserts while watching KPop/KDrama. Tried the Mango Cheese Bingsu. It was so good (the only thing that concerns me was the mango was sour but it's bearable). That milk powder-like fineness of the shaved ice was to die for. Can't wait to try every flavors they have.
Any suggestions which flavor to try next? 😁
What better way to end a field work day than to have bingsu? What I like about this is that it is fairly priced and it never felt like it's just ice and the topping and other things were generously served!
Would definitely go back here especially this summer!
The Choco Brownie bingsu is to die for; it is not too sweet, but enough to satisfy your sweet tooth. I also love the matcha red bean bingsu; the matcha and the red bean blends perfectly. ❤ 2 regular-sized bingsu's enough for 3 persons.
The place is simple with that korean vibe (probably because of the kpop songs playing on the background)
Place: Good light, simple but nice interior, the place is small though but it has that Korean vibe.
Budget: 600php is enough for two person.
We tried their chocolate bingsu.
It taste good but not too sweet. This is not their best seller but it's good.
What I like about this place is that its minimal deco, everything is simple but well put.
One bingsu can be shared by three not so hungry people hehe
We tried the Mango Cheese flavor. Too bad, the mangoes weren't that sweet. It's actually quite sour. But it's okay, not a deal-breaker. The bingsu was still very satisfying. Not too sweet. Place was quite small though but the serving is huge. A regular size order would suffice for 2 people.
After eating at Le Petit Souffle, my girlfriend suggested we eat dessert at Hobing in SM Megamall which serves bingsu, a korean shaved ice dessert. Never had bingsu so we gave it a go. Fell absolutely in love with it. That shaved ice was incredibly fine and easy to eat and the big, fat strawberries of the Strawberry Bingsu just went all great together with the whipped cream and evaporated milk. We visited Hobing again the next weekends after that and we've tried their mango cheese and their coffee caramel and their choco brownie. I wasn't particularly fond of the choco caramel. The mango cheese was good but the mango only bingsu with extra whipped cream is much better in my opinion. And the choco brownie was a surprise for me as i found it quite delicious, despite my initial reservations that the chocolate wouldn't go well with the shaved ice. My favorite is still the strawberry one so definitely go with that on yout first visit.
I've visited this place twice already in the recent past. This outlet tends to be full and customers are likely to linger.
I've tried three flavors -- the mango cheese, the red bean and the strawberry. The standout is mango cheese (a group consensus). Delish and refreshing!
Their regular size is big enough to be shared by 2.
All I have to say is: don't underestimate the regular sized bowl. I didn't have a problem with the size, but I was already pretty full by the time I hobbled over to Hobing so....
I got the injeolmi bingsu, since I loved the one I had in Korea and was excited to have it within reach here in Manila. The nuts in this one are pretty generously sprinkled throughout the bingsu and if you want more milk/sweetness, they give a small bowl on the side. There wasn't a lot of injeolmi (maybe it's just me because I was expecting more injeolmi than I had gotten?) but the garu makes up for it by being everywhere.
I'd order something else the next time, but overall, a good place to have something for dessert! Get ready for a bit of a line though, as there's limited seating. Also note that you'll have to approach the counter to order.
This place is good for desserts and snacks. The flavors of all the Bingsu are great! For first timers, the must try are their best sellers: Mango and Cheese and Strawberry Bingsu. Their tteokbokki is also great! As for serving size, the regular is almost enough for two people.
We tried their Strawberry Bingsu and it was really good. The ice was nice, fine, and creamy. The strawberries were fresh and firm. It has sweet condensed milk but it wasn't overwhelming. It has just the right amount of sweetness. The staff were also very friendly and accommodating. I can't wait to go back and try their other flavors!
We had tried the mango cheeze bingsu. The taste was really delightful. The ice was shave thinly, so that you teeth wont break. The arragements ot the toppings is also nice. The only downsides are price (coz i think its too much) , customer service (i didnt feel that the staff are friendly) , toppings (this could have been done better, they could have added a bit more)
We tried the Mango Cheese Bingsu. It was great. The milk ice was finely shaved. Toppings were a bit short especially the almond chips. I wish there was more. I suggest you get extra whipped cream for 20 pesos because it goes well with the Bingsu. 👅 yummy.
