It was indeed a challenge finding this donut shop that’s situated in one of the alleys in Itaewon street, given the inaccurate location tag on Kakaomap (google maps isn’t accurate in Korea btw). Fortunately, the staff understood English when I made a call to enquire and was really kind enough to physically lead us the way to the cafe. Apart from matcha, I also have a soft spot for Earl Grey hence I settled for the London fog (earl grey) and also couldn’t resist getting my hands on the aesthetically appealing cream earl grey milk tea served in a mini carton(swipe to view). On the other hand, my dining partner chose the strawberries & cream donut which came in a gorgeous bright pink shade and generously filled with strawberry flavoured cream that’s smooth, light and fortunately not cloying. Of course, as one who still prefer tea flavours over fruit flavoured dessert, I personally prefer the London fog more, coming with a lingering floral aroma from the earl grey flavoured cream filling stuffed within. Topped with a slightly crisp sugared glazing and coated with sugar crystals, both donuts were enjoyable in terms of texture, with a soft, fluffy and pillowy mouthfeel. Personally I would recommend enjoying these sweet treats with your bare hands instead as it was a little challenging to slice these cream filled donuts apart with the disposable plastic cutleries provided. Just be prepared and have some napkins with you in case 🤭. On the other hand, the cream earl grey milk tea leaned towards the milky side, while still possessing a characteristic lingering aroma with subtle floral hues. Not the best earl grey milk tea to me but I do appreciate how it’s not saccharine while still carrying a distinct albeit subtle flavour. // Thumbs up for the friendly service here that makes our trip worthwhile (despite walking up and down a long flight of stairs a few times due to the inaccurate location on the map)👍🏻👍🏻. Note that seats are pretty limited here as it’s mainly a takeaway concept.
