We have come to support all of you who are struggling day by day amid the so-called ‘3 highs’ phenomenon of high inflation, high interest rates, and high exchange rates in Korea. When you order coffee, don’t you naturally or rather, quite obviously wonder ‘which dessert should I order’? You want to enjoy delicious coffee and also have a dessert that pairs well with it. If you want to save even just a thousand won during these uncertain economic times, pay close attention. At this place where coffee is sold at affordable prices, be sure to enjoy it with this dessert! Let us introduce it to you right now-♡
Paranmanjan
Experience happiness with a cup of coffee at Paranmanjan amidst your turbulent daily life. Located between rough city buildings, Paranmanjan offers a place to relax. It’s a warm space harmoniously decorated with clean white and wood brown tones. Cute goods like mousepads, keyrings, and masking tapes are sold here, so you won’t get bored while waiting for your drink.
At Paranmanjan, scones are called “Biskon.” It means a crispy scone similar to a biscuit. The texture is exactly halfway between the softness of a biscuit and the crispiness of a scone, just like its name. Biskon is sold in six different varieties: plain, Earl Grey, matcha, yogurt cranberry, chocolate, and onion cheese?truly diverse options.
The combination of onion and cheese surprisingly goes well together. It gives a strong feeling of eating vegetable crackers, and if you eat it with plenty of cream cheese on top, you can enjoy a rich flavor. The salty and savory taste with the deep aroma of onion makes it perfect as a snack for adults.
■ Americano 2,500 won / Plain Biskon 2,900 won.
Mega Coffee
Mega Coffee is a cafe you see a lot these days, second only to StObucksO. Compared to other brands, the prices are cheaper and the drink sizes are larger, so you tend to visit more often. In these times of rising prices, this place truly understands consumers’ hearts! They release new dessert products every month, and the bread they launched for autumn is so delicious that I want to introduce it.
These are the Waang Pizza Full Moon Bread and Waang Corn Mayo Full Moon Bread, which you have to open your mouth wide to eat. If you want to fill your stomach simply or suddenly have to eat alone, I recommend going to Mega Coffee. The pizza full moon bread, with cheese, sausage, corn, mayonnaise, and ketchup, naturally reminds you of the pizza bread you ate in childhood. The corn mayo is filled generously with corn, giving it an attractive texture. If you warm it up and eat it in the store, it’s a hearty meal. Dear staff?would it be possible to combine these two products into a ‘Waang Pizza Corn Mayo Full Moon Bread’?
■ Americano 2,000 won / Waang Full Moon Bread 3,900 won.
Compose Coffee
Compose Coffee is a cafe comparable to Mega Coffee introduced earlier in terms of taste, price, and other factors that determine a cafe choice. This is a very personal opinion, but it feels like Compose offers a wider variety of drink options! One of the must-try desserts when visiting Compose is Krungji. Krungji is a dessert made by flattening a croissant to make it like scorched rice.
You can enjoy cinnamon and maple flavors. It’s full of buttery aroma, making it savory, and you can distinctly taste the cinnamon and maple flavors respectively. The most attractive feature is the texture. You can clearly feel the layers of the croissant dough, and it’s crispy, so it’s very easy to finish one quickly while sitting down.
■ Americano 1,500 won / Krungji 1,500 won.
