As the summer heat sets in, there's no better way to cool off than with a delightful bowl of pat bingsu (팥빙수), Korea's beloved red bean shaved ice dessert. There are many places to find bingsu, and pat bingsu is the most common. Dating back to the Joseon Dynasty era (1392-1897), bingsu was made with crushed ice and various fruits. After the Korean War, bingsu evolved using condensed milk, syrups, and chocolates (introduced from the US).
In Pyeongtaek’s Anjung area, Evans Tea House stands out for its innovative take on this classic dessert. Instead of the typical condensed milk, owner Seungsoo Lee opts for a scoop of ice cream, enhancing the pat bingsu with a creamy texture and rich flavor that melds perfectly with the shaved ice.
Evans Tea House is not just a café, but a delightful slice of British culture in Korea. The café is themed on British tea houses and offers a taste of the United Kingdom with menu items such as British cream tea sets, scones, and crumpets. The charming café is adorned with original drawings and artwork by the owner, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and dessert.
Evans Tea House not only offers a cozy indoor seating area but also a lovely outdoor space with a canopy. On sunny and comfortable days, you can bask in the pleasant weather while enjoying your tea and desserts.
Whether you're looking to indulge in a classic afternoon tea or enjoy a refreshing bowl of pat bingsu, Evans Tea House promises a memorable and delightful experience.
