After hearing about this new place in Calgary, I was really excited to try an ice cream dessert after dinner. I had tried something similar in Japan a few years ago, so it is really cool to see the same type of dessert available close to home!
Atmosphere: 3.5/5 Small dessert store located conveniently within a mall in Chinatown and within walkable distance to a number of other shops. Bright and simple set up. There are a few chairs outside, but it was a bit difficult to find a seat as they were already occupied.
Food: 4/5 Simple menu. I ended up getting the fish taiyaki, with a red bean coat inside and pandan / matcha soft serve. I love the contrast between the warm crispy waffle with the cool mildly sweet ice cream inside. There are also a number of topping options, but I ended up just keeping it simple with a few hazelnuts. Overall very tasty!
Service: 4/5 Great explanation of the desserts and concept of the store; friendly service
Price: 3/5 $7 for the above
Overall: 3.5/5 Overall good option for dessert! The only problem is sometimes a lack of seating space. I would be eager to see additional ice cream flavours as the store becomes more established. Great topping options also; would love to return for another treat!
