Seoul(Gangnam-gu) , Sinsadong・Garosu-gil

It’s a relatively new place very small but very yummy. On the warmer days this place is paradise to get a cone and lounge in the park. It’s a good walk by place for a cutesy and delicous ice cream. Recently probably since it’s winter they have been selling cake pops. I didn’t try one but my friend has they are on the small side but she said they were good. They dress these flavors up with cute and tasty cones as well as candies and other things.
