Pan Honesta 빵어니스타 Gangnam

I have two things to drink and a brownie, both amazing.

I already visited their other branch in Seoul and this time a was bit disappointed by the taste of the products. Last time a got tiramisu tart/muffin and this time a got a chocolate chip scone and a mugwort cake. The scone was fine, nothing special but edible, but the cake was really really dry. It was cheaper than the tart last time but I still had some expectations. The service is nice but I don’t think they have a place to sit in this branch, I think it’s just for takeout.

If you want to eat vegan bingsu you should go here! We had the black sesame one and its enough for 2! They also have a lot of vegan pastry to go and good coffee. Enough seats also very lovely place!

This location is take out only, but I sure am glad for it when I’m craving something sweet in this part of town. I avoid cane sugar as much as possible so their coconut sweetened goodies will always be my go to. It’s about as healthy as desserts can get!

This branch of Panhonesta sells bakery items only for take-away, but has the same assortment of items as the other stores. Even the beverage menu is offered for to-go. Panhonesta has developed quite popular and pretty bakery products within the past years. They now offer a large variety of dessert-type products, ranging from scones, tartes, cookies to brownies . The business claims that everything is produced without white sugar and wheat flour, while using rice flour, oat milk, coconut sugar, coconut milk and many organic ingredients. Their bakery products, however, are NOT 100% gluten-free (GF) as contamination with oat milk is possible. Depending on each item, taste, texture and appearance of their bakery products are very diverse yet different from regular bakeries. In general, they are less sweet and the flavor of the color giving key ingredient is rather prominent. Since coconut-derived products are generously used as well, many items are somewhat oily/greasy and smell of coconut. Personally, I enjoy that the flavors of e.g. matcha or black sesame are strong, while others may perceive them as overpowering or too bitter. Updated from previous review on 2019-12-05
