The whole time I walk through the streets is full of the desire to get into a warm futon, but there's a reason why I'm looking forward to winter. This is because it is the season for strawberries, which exude a sweet and aromatic scent! Seasonal fruits come out every season, but are there any fruits that excite our hearts as much as strawberries? From the red and coveted visuals to the sweet taste that you can feel when you take a bite, and the unique fresh and aromatic smell.
Here are a variety of dessert versions of strawberries that you can enjoy as pure strawberries themselves, but you can also enjoy them aged and enjoyed as fruit, or you can boil them and eat them as jam! Strawberry latte mixed with savory milk, strawberry whipped cream cake with soft cream and moist sheet, strawberry tart with crunchy pastries, custard cream, and even strawberry mont-blanc and strawberry macaroons! We will introduce various “strawberry dessert restaurants†that can be made with strawberries all over the country.
1. 'Special Thank You' in Busan, a rooftop cafe with an exotic atmosphere
Located in Yeonji-dong, Busan, 'Special Thanks 2' is a rooftop cafe famous for its exotic atmosphere. The clean white-toned interior, green plants scattered all over the place, and even the scenery you can see from the window. It's also a great place to take pictures with an emotional atmosphere. Note that it is located in a residential area in Yeonji-dong, so first-time visitors may find it difficult to find it.
This place's signature menu is “Today's Bread.†The bakery that the owner bakes himself every day, such as pound cake and crumble with a variety of flavors such as green tea, chocolate, and figs, is popular. As a rule, they order 1 drink per person, and if you enjoy coffee on the rooftop, they serve it in a take-out glass. It uses beans roasted by Ann in Bean Roasters, and coffee is provided with 2 shots as a standard. TWG products are used for various types of tea. You can also find the sweet and sour “Fresh Strawberry Latte,†which was recently newly released and made with fresh strawberries.
At night, the light bulbs on the terrace light up, so you can enjoy the night view of Busan even more beautifully. They say they can also rent for Christmas and year-end parties, so if you're planning a party, it's a good idea to call the store to check. Please note that currently it is not possible to enjoy drinks and bread on the roof for the time being due to complaints.

2. A meaningful space and dessert, 'Cafe Me' in Hongdae
“Cafe Imi†is located just off the center of Hongdae. It's a meaningful space created by siblings, where you can find your own blended and roasted coffee and homemade sweets. The menu that is usually prepared includes two types of shaved ice cream, cake, and pound cake made at the store.
The most popular menu items are “Strawberry Mont Blanc†and “Strawberry Short.†If you visit when strawberries are in season, you can even find strawberry shaved ice and strawberry yuzu tea. Strawberry Mont Blanc has fresh strawberries wrapped in soft cream and fresh strawberry cream on a hard tart paper. It has a less heavy flavor than traditional Montblanc and can be enjoyed lightly. Strawberry short, which is accented with savory fresh cream, is also one of the items that continue to be sold. “OchiPong,†baked with cheese mousse and orange filling inside an orange, is also popular.
Please note that the menu prepared changes little by little depending on the season. There is also a pound cake specialty store “Square Imi†just a short distance from Cafe Imi, so if you want a variety of pound cakes, I recommend stopping by.

4. 'Lance Cafe' in Tongyeong, a collection of strawberry cakes
“Lance Cafe†in Tongyeong adds to the atmosphere with dried flowers and vintage interior accessories scattered all over the store. Unlike the first floor, which is neatly arranged, the second floor of the cafe is decorated as an attic. It's a space where you can sit huddled together at one table and feel cozy, and competition for seats is intense.
The most popular menu item at Lance Café is definitely cake. The menu changes slightly every time, but cakes using strawberries, such as “fresh cream cake,†“strawberry crepe,†and “strawberry tart,†which come back in the strawberry season, are always very popular. Strawberry crepes, in particular, are said to be one of the popular dishes that are quickly sold out in requests for delivery from all over the country, as there are lots of soft cream and strawberries placed between the sheets. The savory “pompon latte†topped with cooking pong is particularly popular among those who can't drink coffee.
During the Christmas season, you can order both cookies and whole cakes, and you can also order mixed cakes composed of desired slices of cake. They say baked goods and group orders are also available, so call the store to inquire.

Popular items on the menu are vanilla cappuccino “gumuccino†and “roasted sweet potato pie†with rich milk foam. Also, “Berry Yogurt†was newly released not long ago.

6. A different harmony! Handmade dessert, Busan 'Kongstang'
'Constang' is a cafe located at the back gate of Bukyongdae in Busan. Constance, which means “consistent†in French, is a cafe created by remodeling an ordinary house. Plants, dried flowers, and cute interior accessories scattered all over the place add to the atmosphere, and the interior, where sunlight comes in, creates a fresh and comfortable feeling.
Popular menus are “Verrivian†and “Evergreen.†Berivian is a drink made by mixing sour Schisandra extract with strawberry juice, and you can enjoy it refreshingly. Strawberry juice, lemon, and rosemary are added to the carbonated water for a sweet and sour finish that is good for quenching thirst. Evergreen is a dessert menu made by cutting fresh strawberries into strawberry yogurt and topping it with rich green tea ice cream fondant. At first, you can eat it by scooping it with a cutlery, and at the end you can pick it up like a drink and drink it. Strawberry cake covered with rich strawberry cream cheese is also one of the popular dishes.
The cafe is located in the back alley, so it can be difficult for first-time visitors to find it. Since the owner makes the drink himself, it may take some time for the menu to come out after ordering, so it's a good idea to keep in mind.

8. Yeosu's 'Honey Flang', a feast of homemade sweets
“Honey Plan†is a handmade macaroon dessert specialty store located in Yeosu. Note that the studio is operated together, and the interior is not spacious, so there aren't many prepared seats. A different flavor of macaroons is prepared every day, and the list can be found on the official Instagram.
The most popular menu item is the “Strawberry Cream Cheese Tart.†Rich cream cheese placed thick in a firm tart paper, soft strawberry cream, and even fresh strawberries topped on top. It is one of the dishes that sells out the fastest because the rich cream cheese blends with the butter-flavored tart paper, the light-textured strawberry cream, and sweet and sour strawberries. The “Matcha Chocolat†and “Earl Grey Chocolat†tarts are also popular for their rich flavors that make good use of their natural flavors. Macaroons, which are crispy on the outside and have a chewy filling on the inside, are also popular, and are available in a variety of flavors, such as “lemon curd†with a fresh lemon filling, “pavé chocolate†with a rich chocolate flavor, and “purple sweet potato.â€
