| - Tsujiri is very small and is mainly for takeout desserts, although there is seating inside (but you probably won't find a seat.) The cafe's popularity means that more often than not, the line extends out the door, especially in the summer time. Try to avoid peak hours if possible - on the night we went to Santosei, the line for Tsujiri went out the door and past a few shops. The shop is small and only have a few staff, so don't expect the line to move too quickly!
The shop itself is decorated in a very Japanese style, from the color schemes, wooden paneling, to the inside seated area. The cafe offers a selection of hot beverages and teas, lattes, ice creams, shaved ice, cream puffs, and cakes. Although it's a matcha cafe, many of the ice cream options offer a matcha/vanilla swirl, or plain vanilla flavor soft serve.
I ordered the Chiffon Cake Sundae with a mixed vanilla/matcha swirl, and my friend got the Tsujiri Sundae (also with matcha/vanilla). The vanilla and matcha swirl is a nice balance as the vanilla gives a more creamy and subdued flavor. The cake was a bit dry but had a soft and light texture. Beneath the soft serve was a layer of cornflakes, which lends a pleasantly surprising crunch!
The Tsujiri Sundae was a mixed swirl of soft serve atop a layer of granola, layered with red bean syrup and topped with a sakura cookie, rice mochi, and a ball of chestnut. The chestnut was really stinky for some reason? but it tasted really nice!
Both sundaes were $7.50 each.
TAKE NOTE: Tsujiri only accepts cash.
3 stars for tasty treats, -1 expensive for the amount you get, -1 for limited seating and sometimes slow service.
