Visited here twice. The first time we were here, we were too late. Their restaurant were close. So we didn't manage to visit the upstairs' restaurant. Had no idea that they closed so early on a Sunday night. Gion were pretty must deserted by 10pm, unlike on a Saturday night. We tried their matcha flavored soft cream aka soft serve... More

After a ramen dinner & wandering around the markets & shops, we decided we needed to cap off our evening (and Boyfriend's birthday) with something sweet. We had seen a long line for this place earlier in the day, and decided to try it. And were promptly blown away. I had the Sakura parfait; Boyfriend had one of the many... More

We finally tried this famous dessert on our 3rd attempting for queuing. The first time too long and 2nd time can't make it by its closing time. However, I carry my body at the edge of sickness of cold and queue with friend for over 30min to finally make it. It has wide variety of desserts. I choose its signature... More

We heard about Tsujiri from a local Japanese cooking teacher, and quickly spotted this green tea restaurant upon our arrival in Gion, thanks to the snaking queue of locals and tourists! We ordered 2 types of parfait (price: 1050 and 1250 yen) which completely exceeded our expectation. Service was superb, the interior design was made to excellence, everything was above... More

Do you like green tea ice cream? If the answer is 'yes' and you're in the Kyoto area, go--right now--to Tsujiri. Don't be put off by the long line or the high prices. Tsujiri's desserts are well worth the effort and expense. Choose from a variety of green tea parfaits that include a mix of gelatin, green tea cake, mochi... More

I had their Tanabata-limited parfait whose name escapes me, but it came with three ice creams; salt, rich green tea sorbet, and houji tea, green tea shaved ice, and some amanatsu citrus drink at the bottom. Yum!

This cafe has lots of menu which made by greentea. Most of all (Parfait, etc. ) are pricy and need to line up for seating for a while. But I think it is worth to wait for it. Or just bite soft-cream which sold at entrance of this shop.
