Shimura in Mejiro

An old traditional Japanese confectionary that serves, among its other Japanese confections, the best shaved ice in Tokyo (in my personal opinion). There definitely is a texture difference between the regular and "natural" ice. The latter is smoother and has less of that icy sharp texture in your mouth. Worth the extra hundred yen in my opinion. There are excellent seasonal shaved ice flavors, but you definitely can't go wrong with the always-available kinako, matcha, or strawberry flavors either. Be prepared to wait during the weekends, particularly in the summer. It's worth it though. Shimura also serves some bento lunches and a vegetable curry.

The best wagashi place ever!

Not bad. The pork was super tasty. My only criticism is that they might want to display a more sanitary image by separating their cooking and serving staff. One of the, what I assumed, confectioners served us. But his apron was covered with white powder (rice flour maybe?). He’s probably a clean guy, but it’s just better not to come out and serve the customers with anything but a clean apron and clean appearance.

I bothered on a rainy day.It’s the corona time.The reservation on the day will end.How long do you want to wait when I heard..I do not know. It changes to the reservation status and coming to the store!And, a casual response.When you visit the store.. rattle smoothlyI was guided.Because it went in the evening, it was sold out a lot, soI ordered Azuki + Topping white balls.Azuki was deliciousI didn't like ice so I didn't do it.If you buy and eat the Kumochi rice cake sold on the first floor☺ It was so delicious ☺☺
