Hyperlocal Tokyo

While there's usually a line down the stairs on weekends, I arrived around 3:15 PM on a weekday and found only a few people waiting. I was able to get in after waiting for about 5-10 minutes. The fruit sandwich and parfait arrived within 5 minutes of ordering! I've tried parfaits and fruit sandwiches at various Sेंकिची branches, but they're always delicious. When I crave delicious fruit, this is the place to go. I'll definitely be back (◠‿◠)

I was deeply impressed by the staff's service. Even though it was 5 minutes before last order and 30 minutes before closing, they asked if it was alright for me to dine. I was happy to be accommodated. I ordered a parfait and an avocado sandwich, both of which were delicious. When I went to pay, a male staff member asked if I enjoyed my meal and apologized for the early closing time. His concern warmed my heart. I didn't know the closing time beforehand, and I chose to dine at your esteemed establishment because of my trust in you. But the staff's thoughtful gesture made me appreciate your establishment even more. It truly is the best, just as the name 'Sengokuya' suggests! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience.

I had the peach parfait, but first of all, the peach was lukewarm. It wasn't cold at all. And the peach wasn't sweet. I was quite surprised. This is Ginza, home to the famous 'Senzokudaya' fruit shop. None of the customers around me said it was delicious. I deeply regret not going to a different, long-established shop for the peach parfait. Incidentally, I had the peach parfait at Nihonbashi Senzokudaya last year, and it was sweet and truly delicious.

It was delicious. I was asked if it was okay to use a different variety of peach for the peach parfait, which was a bit firmer than usual. I agreed, but it wasn't hard at all. I wonder how soft the original peach was? The melon parfait was truly a melon parfait. It's the kind of melon you crave when you want melon. It was juicy, refreshingly sweet, and delicious. Even the lemon in the iced tea was delicious.

The fruit parfait features a subtly sweet cream that beautifully complements the natural sweetness of the fruit. The addition of apple adds a delightful textural element, showcasing the careful thought and planning behind this creation. It's truly impressive, as expected from a renowned establishment like 'Senzokuten.' Despite visiting on a weekday, I waited about 30 minutes. There were many foreign visitors as well. Even with the wait, I prefer the Ginza and Nihonbashi branches.
