Snowy Bingsu brings Korean avors to Flower Mound When husband-wife team Sunny Choi and Jimmy Kim bought Snowy Bingsu in June, they brought along cultural and industry knowledge. Choi said she grew up in Korea where bingsu, a
Ham and cheese taiyaki ($7.99) is a sh-shaped pastry made fresh in-house.
What’s on the menu In addition to 20 bingsu avors, the Korean-in- spired menu also features 20 types of smoothies, a variety of boba and iced teas and taiyaki, which is a pastry with sweet and savory lling options. “The strawberry bingsu is most popular because it is very fresh,” Choi said. A healthy option is injeolmi, which is made from a bean powder and is a traditional bingsu. Quote of note “A lot of the customers ... have never heard of bingsu before,” Jinha Kim, Choi and Jimmy Kim’s daughter said. “We explain it’s a shaved ice cream. That intrigues them ... they try it, then come back.”
shaved ice cream, is popular. Prior to buying Snowy Bingsu, the couple owned a fried chicken restaurant in Garland, a Korean restaurant in Denton and they still own and operate Daylight Donuts in Frisco. The context The reason the couple bought the seven-year-old business is twofold—Choi said she wanted to own a business that was close to home and to ll a void. “This is the only place that serves Korean food in Flower Mound,” Choi said. “I plan on adding Korean street food to the menu in the fall.”
