"The Japanese sweets here are truly delicious! The bean paste is incredibly smooth and sweet, it's amazing! They have two types of dorayaki, and the white one is chewy, making the difference even more delightful. The cat manju is also quite surreal and cute (lol). I'll definitely go back! I heard they also sell them at Nippori Station."

"The "Tanuki" (raccoon dog) pastry is filled with plenty of sweet bean paste, while the "Momiji" (maple leaf) pastry is without any. Personally, I prefer the dough, so I'm a "Momiji" fan. But, I think "Tanuki" would be irresistible for those who love sweet bean paste. It's filled with so much of it. The "Tanuki" was cute."

"They're making old-fashioned 'kinako bo' (mochi sticks coated in soybean flour). Amazingly, they're selling 50 sticks for 300 yen, including a chance to win a prize! They also sell them individually, so you can just drop by and buy some."

"I recently visited Yamada-ya, a long-established ningyo-yaki (stuffed pastry) shop in Kinshicho, after watching the movie "Kinshicho Paradise." There are various theories about the "Oki-teke-bori" (Abandoned Ditch), one of the Seven Mysteries of Honjo, but one theory states that the tanuki (raccoon dog) stole the fish caught in the Kinshicho ditch"

"I ordered a whole cake 🎂. It was absolutely adorable. Since my friend was going to be a while, I also used the cafe. The King's Scone was delicious and the atmosphere of the shop was great. The stairs to the second floor were steep and I was wearing heels, so it was difficult to go down. Looking at Instagram, I saw that the cafe often closes early,"

"My daughters have loved Lindt chocolate since they were little. While helping me carry shopping bags, one of them spotted it! Σ('◉⌓◉’) She wanted it, so I bought it as a reward for carrying the bags. She chose all milk chocolate to be put in the bag... When I asked if she wanted something different, she said she liked this! She also bought a box "

"It's rare to be able to enjoy delicious Japanese sweets with a cup of fine matcha right there. It's great to be able to try before you buy when choosing souvenirs. I became a fan after receiving one of their dorayaki as a gift. They have so many delicious Japanese sweets. It's a shame that the eat-in space is just a corner of the supermarket wi"

"Everyone knows about the luxurious chocolates from GODIVA, right? When you want to send a gift to someone special, GODIVA is the way to go. I received some of their luxurious chocolates as a thank-you gift recently. GODIVA?! Wow, I'm so happy! Christmas is coming soon, right? For special occasions... maybe this? For example, a gift of a brigh"

"I was intrigued by the inari (sushi pockets) and mitarashi dango (mochi dumplings). I decided to get them to go and eat them in Kinshi Park. I enjoyed the mitarashi dango on a bench while gazing at the Skytree. The generous amount of sauce was delicious."

"It's about a 5-minute walk from Kinshicho Station. It's relatively spacious with plenty of seats. It's also nice that it's open early in the morning. I ordered the S-size gelato daifuku mochi for 580 yen (tax included). It was matcha gelato with a mochi shell. I was told to wait at a table, but I asked if I could watch them make it. (You can see "

"The restaurant was bright and clean. I could see the Tokyo Skytree from the counter seats. I ordered the "Piccolo Mentaiko Rich Taramo Bread Gratin with Ikura." I chose the carbonara pasta for an additional 100 yen. The portions were generous, the salad was plentiful, and everything was delicious. The staff were all very friendly and I had a pleasa"

"Crystal Movement is a lobby lounge located in the TOBU Hotel Levant Tokyo in Sumida Ward, known for its special summer-only shaved ice. The shaved ice uses natural ice from the famous Nikko ice shop "Fourth Generation Ice Shop Tokujirou," earning high praise from food connoisseurs and dessert lovers. This natural ice is made slowly over time using "

"The cake was not overly sweet and had a refreshing taste. I could easily eat two slices of their shortcake. I would recommend this cake shop. However, the price is a bit high, so I deducted one star. Update: I ordered a whole strawberry cake for a birthday, but it lacked richness and wasn't very tasty."

"A delicious and affordable treat near my daughters' extracurricular activities! A follower mentioned their baumkuchen, so I asked my husband to pick some up while the girls were in class. (*´∇｀*) Thank you! I saw a sign mentioning discounted "end pieces" but they were out of stock that day. I ended up getting the "Otokubaum Hole Chocolate", "Van"

"Visited on August 21st. I worked on my laptop here. It's mostly self-service. Secure a seat first, then order at the counter. You carry your own drinks, but meals are brought to your table. Payment is cashless. I earned Mitsui points. The restroom is outside the store. There's background music, but the speakers are loud, so it might not be suitable"

"A cream puff chain store located in an incredibly accessible spot, just a one-minute walk from Kinshicho Station, on the first floor entrance of the station building "Termina." Previously, JRE points couldn't be used, but it seems they've recently started accepting them. Speaking of which, they also launched a smartphone app, but personally, I di"

"A sweet potato specialty store located just a 1-minute walk from Kinshicho Station. Situated on the first floor of Termina, they now accept JRE Point Cards, which they didn't previously. They offer a wide range of products, including baked sweet potatoes, sweet potato pie, dried sweet potatoes, and sweet potato chips. However, the "Oimo Pie" is a m"

"I always thought it was Parco! Apparently, it's on the first floor of a building called Rakutenchi. It was incredibly crowded. Fully booked. But, when I went back a little later, it was empty. There's a lot of turnover, so you might be able to get in... maybe. Oh, if you're alone, that is. Most people were by themselves. Plus, everyone was quiet,"

"I visited around 2:00 PM on a Friday. I was seated promptly, but the place was busier than I expected. I ordered a set of four cakes and a drink bar (¥1800). The manager (I think) said, "It's okay to choose all four at once." So I picked out four cakes from the display case. The cherry cake was especially delicious. All of the cakes at F"

"Located about a 5-minute walk from Kinshicho Station, this cafe has an incredibly cute exterior that feels like it's from another world. The same building often hosts Muster events on the upper floors. The cafe is on the first floor, and the space next to it is used for idol birthday decorations. Upon entering, you order first. For items that com"

"The tarts here are absolutely delicious, and I often use this place for anniversaries and Christmas. Today, the staff member I encountered was very unfriendly. I may have caused a bit of trouble, but they seemed very annoyed. When I was handed the cake, they simply said "Here you go" and immediately turned their back to start working, leaving me un"

"I purchased a chocolate cake from "Tops Kitasenju Termina Store" located in the Kitasenju Station building, Termina. This is my second time buying from Tops, as I also purchased something last year. This chocolate cake contains walnuts and soybeans. The sweetness was just right and it was delicious."
