β β β β β The waffles are nice and crispy, flavours are good too. The interior is abit small though, with limited seating, but well decorated. The only thing I'd like is for the waffle filling to have more textures in them aside from just the cream.

β β β β β Came here on a Thursday. Ordered the waffle with Oreo and matcha red bean, dalgona latte and mozzarella sausage hotdog. The interior is super cute. The service is really friendly and helpful. The waffle with Oreo and matcha red bean was very crispy and not overly sweet. There was quite a bit of red bean in it, I just wish the matcha was a bit stronger. The Oreo was surprisingly not overly sweet either. Would recommend both these flavours.
The Dalgona latte isn't too sweet if you don't mix all the Dalgona in. Once properly mixed in it gets really sweet. I wish the coffee was a bit more bitter to offset the sweetness. I liked the smokiness of the Dalgona.
The mozzarella sausage hotdog was very crispy and satisfying. The cheese definitely did the cheese pull. I probably wouldn't get it again as the ones you can get for airfrying at home taste pretty similar and for a lot cheaper.
Overall would recommend the waffles and the Dalgona latte. Service is really nice and there's a lot of seating on the weekdays. Could see it being a good hangout space
Tip: there isn't much parking in this plaza. A lot of people park in the Hannam Plaza and walk over. Keep in mind you can't turn left from their parking lot if you want to head to Hmart or Hannam Mart afterwards.

β β β β β The waffles and the cream filling are so good and fresh!! Favorite flavors are the Oreo chocolate and strawberry. Did not taste any artificial flavors, the cream are so fluffy! The iced dalgona coffee is really good too but it got too sweet at the end. Would come back to try the rice dogs. Parking is not good though, very limited parking. There was a clipboard at the door for contact tracing but our vaccine cards were not checked.

β β β β β The waffle with red bean and matcha ice cream was pretty good. I got the rice corndog with potato and sausage. The sausage was underwhelming because it wasnβt a flavourful hot dog. They sprinkle sugar on the outside and I wasnβt a fan. The kids got the cheese corndog and seemed to enjoy it.

β β β β β I had better rice corndog elsewhere but it was still pretty good, especially with the Basak sauce. The chubby waffle was a little heavy for me, but it could be that I was really full at the time. They forgot one of our drinks and I have to go up and ask them about it. Appeared they made it already but thought it was for the next order. Service was friendly though.

β β β β β EDITED TO ADD SECOND REVIEW:
I returned upon kind invitation of the owner as my first experience was not what I had hoped. I tried the Earl Grey lavender waffle again and this time the flavor was exactly what I hoped for and delicious! You get a great taste of earl grey and it is balanced perfectly with the waffle. We also tried the basak sausage and mozzarella corn dog. WOW. My husband and I have both been to Korea and love the street food -- Basak has brought Korea to us as the food tastes just as great! Will definitely return for more. I also tried their pineapple fizzy juice and it was incredible and refreshing with the corn dogs. Highly recommend ordering one!
The owner and staff are very kind and professional. Had a great experience.
Initial review:
Waffle: Ordered the lavender Earl Grey and strawberry creme. The waffle itself was tasty but the filling lacked flavor and I didn't get any hint of lavender or earl grey. I felt like it needed a drizzle of something sweet as it was super bland in my opinion and these aren't cheap! Presentation is beautiful tho β€οΈ
Coffee: ordered an Americano misto with oat milk and the oat milk was curdled with no foam. The espresso flavor itself was good.
The cafe itself is adorable, and decorated so cute!! Also the staff are so kind and sweet!! Thank you for the kind service.

β β β β β Taste 5/5
Service 5/5
Price 5/5
Environment 5/5
I tried the corn dogs, a waffle, and a yogurt drink, and it was all delicious. The service was very helpful, kind and welcoming.
The pricing was reasonable and worth it.
The restaurant seating area is very clean and if you like taking pictures the restaurant is very aesthetic.
The one thing you need to know is that the parking lot is always full but there is underground parking.

β β β β β First time here. I've been wanting to try rice corn dogs for a while, and found this place. They did not disappoint. I got half cheese/half sausage with potato. The cheese was nice and melty and the sausage kept the whole thing on the stick and was a nice change halfway through the corn dog. Definitely had a bit more structural integrity than my friends' which was all cheese and started to slide off the stick halfway through. IMO half n half is the way to go. Delicious with the sauces as well. The lavender earl grey waffle was pretty good, not as good as the corn dog for me but I still enjoyed it. The waffle was crispy and the cream was soft and fluffy and subtly flavoured. Not too sweet either. I will definitely be coming back to try more things!
