Korean dessert cafes is popping up all over the Singapore in these last few months, with more cafes offering Korean sweets in the food scene. Back into the days when I was a kid, the closest thing I had was ice kacang from hawker centres - which I crave whenever the day is hot. Shavings of ice, topped with colorful syrup and mixed with generous amount of red beans, sweet corn and atap seeds: yum! Then, came the Taiwanese versions of shaved ice with unique flavours like green tea, sesame, chocolate and strawberry. Man! We have been spoilt, and now, I no longer love ice kacang with the same intensity that I used to, especially since some of the Korean shaved ice I've had offers a smoother and milkier consistency.
O'ma spoon, a locally born and bred establishment, sources its ingredients and machinery from Korea. Menu includes Bingsu and Toast with a limited selection of cakes. We were there on a Saturday afternoon and there was a snaking queue formed waiting for seats. There was 2 queues- one to place order and another was the queue for seats. Fortunately the queue moved pretty quickly and we made a smart move to place our order at the counter while awaiting for a place to seat- we got our food shortly after we got our seats.

Overall, It was a decent experience. Given its prime location smack right in the middle of Orchard road, we can expect the crowd to continue.
