Caffe Bene; 카페베네

Its Summer !!!
It is so freaking warm. Sometimes I just feel like lazing on the bed with the fan blowing and never having to move a single inch.

Cafes in Korea are also pushing out summer special, such as Patbingsoo (shaved ice) to help fend off the heat. 
So, Caffe Bene is introducing 3 flavours. 


Kiwi Patbingsoo - 9,800krw


Caramel Popcorn Patbingsoo

New York Cheesecake Patbingsoo - 13,500krw 

Being a major cheesecake maniac, how could I ever miss this.
So, i went on a major hunt for it with my best bud (cos how could i ever finish one on my own) ?

I have never liked Caffe bene before, cos their coffee taste real bad. 
Like real real bad. I have never taste a franchise coffee that tasted so bad. 
That kind of bad.
But they are pretty well known for other stuffs like waffle and honey bread etc.
And so far, almost all the Caffe bene i went to, have polite service staff. 

So, back to topic,  when i first gotten the patbingsoo, it looks as though someone shot down the statue of liberty.
This should have been the first sign.
The patbingsoo is accompanied with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream , cheesecake that is practically just cheese in the shape of a cake, statue of liberty made of white chocolate, her blood berry jam, shaved ice and saltine crackers in between.



This patbingsoo is just like their coffee. BAD.
This mixture is just so bland. Who eats saltine cracker with ice ?
Everything just went so off. Thankfully the bottom ice has milk in it, so it was not that bad but not good enough to save the day.
But overall, I rather changed the 13,500krw i spent on this into coin and pelt it at passing cars.
It will be less painful then having to finish this bowl of ... dead statue of liberty. 

TSK.
