Japan, especially Tokyo is “Shaved ice heaven!” It’s the best dessert to beat the extreme heat of Japanese summer. There is a variety of delicious and creative shaved ices as Kakigori (かき氷) during summer in Japan . Let’s have a look at 5 yummiest shaved ice shops in Tokyo, where you will be fully satisfied by their taste and look.
Kakigori is shaved ice in Japanese style which is flavored with syrup. Actually, there are many kinds of syrup that you can choose your favorite one or more than one 🙂 In the way to a certain extent, if you wanna have some of real Japanese experiences, it’s a great idea if you try Japanese green tea flavor which some shops will serve you with Azuki (sweet red bean paste) and Dango ( ball-shaped mochi dumplings).
In Tokyo, there are a lot of shops which serve Kakigori. Of cause sure, no one wants to feel disappointed in poor taste. So, I’d like to recommend you the best 5 shops in Tokyo which serve great looking and tasty Japanese shaved ice as below.
