Came here to try the "bingsu", which is Korean shaved oce .. I must say it's the most authentic bingsu on island, much better than the one you can find in Ala Moana! The shaved ice has a sweeten milk flavor, and the owner puts LOTS of fresh fruits on it, toppings are generously spreaded on this giant bowl of shaved ice. An espresso shot was provided if you want to pour it over the bingsu and enjoy the bitter sweet flavor. 100% my go to place if I want a dessert in this summer. read more

I used to order from En Hakkore at their old location inside the old 88 Supermarket on Keeaumoku St. I'm glad they've relocated to the snack area of Palama Supermarket. My favorite then -- and now -- is their bingsu, a Korean dessert made from finely shaved ice, typically topped with an assortment of sweet ingredients. At En Hakkore, toppings include slices of banana, strawberry, azuki, etc., including what looks like Japanese "kinako" (roasted soybean powder). It also comes with a small cup of espresso, which you pour over the dessert to your taste. Instead of dinner today, I just had bingsu as dessert. If you haven't tried bingsu before, and you're expecting "shaved ice," you might be disappointed. But if you go in with an open mind, you may -- or may not -- like it. Either way, it's worth trying at least once. read more

Korean style shave ice. Ordered the fruit shave ice. It's topped with fresh strawberries, banana, kiwi, apple, azuki beans, almond slivers, mochi balls, soy flour and sweetened condensed milk. You get a small cup of espresso to pour over. Taste great , but a little too expensive for just a bowl of shave ice, even though it feeds 2. read more

Dessert in Honolulu, Hawaii... Between meals, we needed a snack. How about bingsu (Korean shave ice)? We had seen Jackie's review, and I saw Lyla's check-in. I heard this business name before: EN Hakkore. It has returned to the food court area of Palama Market on Makaloa Street! It's a bit noisy,but fun in a way! It's a good thing that Jackie said that the bingsu portion is generous... We agree! We shared the Fruit Bingsu. We were given 2 paper bowls and 2 spoons. Perfect! The fresh strawberries, banana, and small cubes of apple complimented the slight bitterness of the espresso and the creaminess of the wondered milk. The chewy mochi balls were an interesting contrast to the azuki bean paste and almond slivers. I'm glad that EN Hakkore is back! Maybe I'll get a tea, smoothie, or coffee next time! read more

Be prepared... Nothing like a refreshing Bingsu on this blazing hot day and here at En Hakkore a coffee and Bingsu cafe right in the food court of Palama Market. Be prepared for the size of this treat as it's quite generously massive that could feed 2-3 besties, dining is the best as it comes in a huge bowl topped with mochi, azuki beans, apples, bananas, strawberries, sliced almonds, soy flour and condensed milk...wow! As if that's amazing it comes with a shot of espresso that you pour over the entire bowl kicking it up a huge notch. The drama as we pour...ooohhhh! You're able to order the "Soybean flour Bingsu as is or add fruit for an additional $1 and if you pay in cash and save 4% off menu price. Lots of seating is provided for the various other shared foodies making it a great spot to refresh and relax with a bowl of yummy Bingsu that not only refreshes but energize your day. Thank you! read more

I like coming here often. The same woman is always there working hard bc the place is busy. I like her, she makes a good coffee and always apologizes and lets me know if she's super busy if she can't take my order right away. I don't mind, you can tell she's busting her butt all the time. The regulars are older Koreans who come to grab bingsu, taiyaki, espresso and talk story, so you know it's good. I'll usually order and pay for my coffee and then tell her I'll be back then I go shopping in Palama and when I come back it's good timing. Got taiyaki yesterday, best I've had bc inside not too sweet, wasn't dry, and the outside is thin and edges are crispy. Go and give her a nice tip, you'll see, she deserves it. read more

EN Hakkore - Red Bean Taiyaki (3 for $9) and caramel iced macchiato. The taiyaki is made fresh and it has crispy edges! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

After a particularly challenging prehab session at JACO Rehab, I mentioned eating a shaved ice dessert to my husband before going to eat lunch. He offered going to our usual Korean shaved or snow ice (bingsu 빙수) shop at Ala Moana Center but I suggested going to EN Hakkore at Palama Supermarket on Makaloa Street. I remember eating bingsu or its variation, pat-bingsu (red bean bingsu) at EN Hakkore when it was located on Ke'eaumoku Street near the 88 Palpal Korean Supermarket. EN Hakkore's pat-bingsu has always been a jumbo-sized frozen treat that my husband and I usually share. Admittedly, I scarfed down an entire serving several years ago when we temporarily hunkered down in the Ala Moana neighborhood. Haha... I justified eating this Korean dessert as healthy since it's low-sugar, low-calorie, and mainly ice or water. Upon walking into the Palama Supermarket's food hall, the middle-aged female greeted us and I blurted our request for their Fruit (Bingsu) Shaved Ice $15.20. We noticed their Dual Pricing Notice, which informed customers that they could save 4% from the advertised price if they paid with cash. I was still red-faced and sweating from my prehab session, so I rushed to pay with my credit card. The Fruit Shaved Ice was served with a shot of espresso...whaat? But, did you know coffee and the café culture has been very popular in Korea since the 19th Century? You'd ask why pour hot coffee over shaved ice? Won't it melt the dessert and become slushy? Well, yes, the hot espresso will melt the fluffy shaved ice and mix with the fresh fruit toppings and condensed milk drizzle to create a sensational flavor treat that not only refreshes or cools your body temperature but the espresso's caffeine picks you much like eating tiramisu. We were provided a pager which informed us of order pick up. While we carried our dessert to our table, there were several couples eating their meals and they ogled our pat-bingsu. Most of the couples followed our Fruit Bingsu with espresso order since they were impressed with this vendor after seeing our dessert. I had forgotten that my husband is on a self-imposed restrictive diet and cannot eat high potassium-containing foods. I lucked out and ate all the banana slices and honeydew melon chunks. We both enjoyed the injeolmi (Korean rice cakes), which added a chewy mouthfeel, and the dry, nutty-tasting bokken konggaru (roasted soybean powder). As you know, Asian desserts aren't as sugary and sweet as Western desserts, and Asians tend to rely upon fresh or seasonal fruits for natural sweetness. If you're in the Ala Moana neighborhood and feel like getting a healthy and cooling dessert or afternoon coffee beverage, I suggest you try EN Hakkore. read more

Good korean dessert located in Panama market. Must try this with the espresso, the espresso shot was strong bitter lasting flavor in your mouth but if you add it in your bingsu the espresso taste like a sweeten coffee. Service was okay, the lady doesn't talk much. Ambiance was okay can't say much since we went in for the bingsu. read more
