Heuk Hwa Dang NYC

I'm not in the least bit a fan of desserts—save for the alcohol-infused kind, which I will write about in another blog—but when you're married to a sweet tooth whose extended family and relations are also prone to sweet cravings, you're left with no choice but to prepare your sugar-averse palate. 

Good thing there's always caffeine to fall back on, and luckily my wife's new love Heuk Hwa Dang, HHD for short, makes very good espressos.

This relatively new addition to Midtown Manhattan's Koreatown gastropolis of sorts has everything a confectionery enthusiast would want! Croiffle (croissant and waffle hybrid), cracker, bubble tea, ice cream, smoothie, fruit snow flake (shaved ice with fruits), coffee and tea—they have it. We've had the Mango Berry Snow Flake shown top left, which can easily be shared among four diners. The Strawberry Croiffle, probably just two—to share with other treats on the menu.

The video below captures the two instances we've checked out HHD, plainly a harbinger of more future visits to come.
