It is a little on the pricey side but when you factor that they are making it in front of you and there will be a wow factor is most of their desserts. (Just trust me, keep your eyes on them while they make it to the time you eat it and you will know what I mean).
Like most good things in life you will need patience:
Patience in parking as this place is in a small strip mall that is filled with a bunch of other good places to eat. Trust me, it is a foodies dream come true. With that said, parking can be a pain at times. If you are impatient there is street parking as well.
Patience in waiting in line. Sometimes you will see a line to sit down. I believe there is no reservation so it is first come, first served. We try to come later in the evening to avoid the lines.
Patience to eat. While the prep-cooks make certain things for future orders, most of it is made right there in front of you. So you will need patience but watching how they make it right in front of you is pretty cool. (note: try and sit up at the counter so you are able to watch) If you don't care, then just grab one of the tables.
Desserts: One thing I like when I come here is one that is called Ringo. It's like a apple pie on steroids. It is like a masterpiece on a plate. Almost looks too nice to eat, but trust me I ate every last bite on the plate. You have of course a small crisp apple pie, honey ice cream with a cool shiny apple. We took a video of cracking it open and watching the whipped cream and caramel sauce ooze out slowly.
Then there is Mars. This is another wow moment; It's a white chocolate dome that they drizzle a flambeed Hennessy over it and you watch as the outside layer melts away exposing a yuzu mousse, chocolate cream with a hazelnut crunch. It looked amazing but the taste was so-so. Not my favorite but it was a fav on all social media platforms (IG, FB, and Snap) as my friends made comments of wow and amazing.
Just a FYI I heard there is a minimum of $12 per person but the desserts are $12 or you can do the 2 course option which comes with a extra dessert of either a raspberry sorbet or a small Creme brulee and one of the desserts on the menu. Also, this is Japanese style desserts so it's not too sweet so don't be expecting a sugar rush biting into them.
