Last week I went to one cute
dessert store in an area called Ebisu. Me and my friends saw this cute looking
small dessert and decided to give it a try, since sometimes in front of this
store, usually have a quite long queue which make us curious about this shop.
It only takes about 5 minute walk
straight from JR Ebisu station which is very convenient, I think.
Although the store is quite small
and can only fit around 10 people to dine in, the nuance is very nice! I always
amazed by how the Japanese can décor such a small place into a very cozy
surroundings.
The menu itself is not very hard
to read even though still, most of it are in Japanese. But don’t worry the
staff sometimes can speak English too! They sell variations of savory and sweet
ice creams (with the taste of quite you-can-never-find-in-other-store kind,
such as pear, melon, grapefruits, karintou, etc), japanese traditional dessert
and dessert drinks. The price range is not that expensive too, ranged from 390
yen to 490 yen, and 600 yen for the special menus such as dessert of the season
whatsoever which usually came in a big portion.
We ordered Dango Ice for 390 yen,
with the normal standard sauce. Actually we can choose the red bean sauce but
we were afraid with the ice cream it will be super sweet so nevertheless we go
for the normal savory sauce one. And we can choose the ice cream flavor too! I
chose karintou (Japanese friend dough) at that time and it taste awesommeeeeee.
Not very sweet and got this savory taste a little bit. The dango itself is warm, chewy, with a perfect balance of sweet-savory-soy-sauce taste like sauce over
it cannot be more perfect than that.
Another menu we ordered is the
red bean glutenous rice jelly dessert for 470 yen. I forgot the name precisely
though, but still it was very nice! It’s not very sweet like I imagined it will
be. That’s what I think as the plus point for this store. They mix jelly, red
bean, dunno bout the yellow thingy though but I suppose ot was some kind of
sweet potato ball, and a syrup topping. Yums!
And then, because the karintou
ice cream was soo good, we went back there again several days later just only
to eat the ice cream <3
And they didn’t forget to put a
little bit of savory dry seaweed to balance with the ice cream even though we didn’t
need it though, as the ice cream itself was in the tight level of sweetness.
And so I can say I have a full
dessert satisfaction level for the week!!
