honestly the vodka rigatoni was kinda whack cuz it was v sun-dried tomato forward which is not what I was expecting - I think the spaghetti pomodoro is better

i got so lucky and there was no line but a few bites in i realized i wasn't that hungry 😭 still was so good tho shrimp tomato tsukumen: def not a traditional tsukumen, the broth had cheese in it but worked really nice with the tomato. the noodles came w a pesto sauce which was so fire. there was more pork and bamboo in the broth too kinda crazy for 1500 yen

vibes of this cafe were rlly cute it was lowkey a grind to find tho the entrance is rlly nondescript. plating was so cute love the little metal coaster matcha parfait: this was kinda crazy idt i should've ate it at 10 in the morning tho. rlly like the diff textures there was like some mascarpone, pudding, cream, granola, ice cream. had like sesame and yuzu flavors kinda wish there was more yuzu matcha latte: better than the other places i've been to so far but still not crazy

really good it was nice cause they let you sample the beans before ordering so I knew i would like it. only complaint is i'm used to drip coffee coming in the pot so this cup felt kinda ugly idk

matsu course: i guess good things r worth waiting for cause i again waited for like 45 mins 😵‍💫 it actually was so good tho they give you some dashi when you're almost done and it completely changed the dish. they recommend you put some of the sashimi from before into the dashi and it cooked it which was so interesting. the dashi was so yummy i think i almost liked it more in the dashi.

basque cheesecake: more cheese forward than i expected but i personally liked it. came with some sort of soft cheese and olive oil which was rlly interesting. i think it worked tho. raspberry matcha: another matcha disappointment lowkey 😭 but the raspberry flavor was nice so at least it tasted like raspberry milk instead of just regular milk the space itself was so nice though i don't think my pics do it justice. sound system was also incredible and they were playing bangers. frank ocean? daniel caeser? the marias? too good

can't believe this was 7 USD. broth was nice and light, good jammy egg, and pork was super tasty. the ticket machine took card too which was so convenient. needed this after 20k steps 🫩
