Sure there are tons of things to love about the Yonge-Finch location -- most notably it's in an area also surrounded by delicious food places, there's great karaoke, and there's subway line 1. However, this new Markham location makes the commute all the more shorter (& sweeter) for me -- not to mention that this place is a lot bigger with lots of seats and tables -- a good cafe vibe.
Despite being 99% full with delicious noodles, my brother and I popped in and ordered a cup-sized matcha bingsu which comes with green tea ice cream, layers of condensed milk, mochi, red bean, and, almond flakes to share. Although cup-size is their smallest for bingsu, it's still quite a bit to eat and makes the perfect snack or dessert to a big meal. Only con I can think of is that, because it's cup-sized, there will be a bigger ratio of shaved ice to toppings so, if you're feeling up for it, I recommend getting the bowl sizes (they're great for sharing if you can't tackle it on your own!) and then mixing really well to get the flavours fusing with the shaved ice.
My brother and I are big matcha fans so I recommend this one for sure but I've also tried the cheese one which I am also going to recommend here because who doesn't like chunks of cheesecake mixed in with ice cream?
