Japanese desserts like mochi-wrapped gelato.
Japanese$
Texture-lovers will delight in this Japanese shop’s mochi-wrapped scoops, ice-cream sandwiches on rice wafers called monaka, and the hunks of strawberry swirled through other flavours. Some are bold and savoury (such as the strong matcha using tea from Tokyo); others are light and fruity (see the coconut with mikan, a Japanese citrus fruit). Use the menu’s abstract illustrations to help you choose, or ask smiling staff for a taste.
Must-try scoop: Genmaicha (roasted brown rice and green tea) with mochi pearls and kuromitsu (similar to molasses).
