When a certain shop in Japan opened any overseas outlets, I lost the impetus to visit their main stores in Japan for the food. The same goes for Tsujiri, which has branches in Taiwan, China and of course, Singapore. However, it was a random surprise to spot a series of cup sweets lined beautifully on the display shelf. 

Indeed, these were a good switch from the usual rich parfaits or soft serves which are available in abundance in Kyoto, For something non-creamy and intense, go for the Warabi-Mochi.



In fact, both the Matcha Tiramisu and Matcha Millefeuille were very delicious too. 
Though not visibly seen, the matcha sponge layers buried within the velvety cream were delightfully moist and bitter. 

Not a fan of matcha? There is houjicha as well.

Each cup costs 486 yen
