Hyperlocal Tokyo

Visited in September 2024. I went there for lunch on a Saturday around 1:00 PM. The restaurant only has tables, but it's fine to dine alone. You order using a QR code on your phone. I ordered the "Mitsuimo" Mont Blanc and Baked Sweet Potato Brulee Pancakes with Caramel Sauce for 1760 yen. It took about 12 minutes for the food to arrive after I ordered. I took a bite after cutting it into bite-sized pieces. It was delicious! The fluffy pancakes and cream go well together. It was more substantial than it looked in the menu photo, so I was satisfied. Thank you for the meal. *PayPay is accepted.

On August 12, 2024, I took a break at **Cafe & Books Bibliotheque Tokyo, Yurakucho**. I ordered the "Whole Fresh White Peach Rare Cheesecake" with a drink set. For the drink, I chose iced Earl Grey tea. The white peach rare cheesecake was absolutely delicious! The cheesecake was nestled inside a whole white peach. The tartness of the cheesecake and the sweet white peach were a perfect combination. The whipped cream on top was adorned with pistachios, adding a delightful accent to the soft, creamy texture. The cookie crust and whipped cream at the bottom were also delicious. It was just as delicious as I expected. PayPay payments are accepted.

September 2024 I went to try the limited-time sweet potato pancake! It costs around ¥1,700. This pancake, while small, is two thick pieces. The outside is slightly crispy, and the inside is chewy and moist. It's not the fluffy, airy type. The tart also looks very tempting... I wonder if next month's limited-time offering will be chestnut. Just imagining it is fun. It's located on a regular floor in Lumine, so be aware that last orders are at 8 pm and closing time is 9 pm, which is a bit early (*'ω'*) I've been wanting to visit this place for a while, and finally made it during the season for Mont Blanc! 🌰🍠 The pancake is thick and chewy. It's sweet, but I also felt a hint of saltiness, which was nice 😌✨ The Mont Blanc is delicious, with both Japanese chestnut and satsumaimo (sweet potato). Inside the Japanese chestnut, there's hidden vanilla ice cream. The florentine (or something similar?) is a nice size, adding sweetness and texture as an accent, which was great 😍. By the way, on top of the florentine in the front is cinnamon-flavored apple and custard ☆ Even though the pancakes are small, they definitely filled me up. It was a delicious pancake that I devoured without stopping 🥰

The pancakes were so delicious, I definitely want to order them again. Even two pancakes were more than enough to fill me up. The peaches were also amazing, I'd love to have them again. There are so many other tempting dishes like Eggs Benedict, pasta, and chicken that I want to try. However, the strong perfume of one of the male staff members was a bit of a disappointment.

The waiter brought our pancakes, but the cream topping fell off. We asked for a new one, but they refused. My friend said it was okay, but I really wished they would have remade it. After all, desserts are all about presentation. The pancake itself was also quite hard and not very tasty.
