Sweets One with Snoopy

don't bother with these and go to cafe crepe or anywhere else on Harajuku St.

--------------------

There are so many crepes in Tokyo. Lisa and I got these for lunch while shopping in Harajuku.


Lovely Crepe and Choco Banana Crepe
The Lovely Crepe had chocolate cake bits and cheesecake in the center.

Beard Papa's

Lisa and I went shopping in Shibuya and coming out of the station, we smelled something...


Having heard that beard papa's in Japan is infinitely superior to those in other countries, I refrained from trying them in Taiwan. And I have to agree that Beard Papa's in Taiwan never had this wafting smell effect as this one did.


They were promoting their Strawberry cream


"It tastes like a strawberry smoothie" is what Lisa said and I think this describes the cream puff really well. I actually don't like cream puffs (soz!) but this one made me very happy and I forgot about my aching feet for a minute or two.

Denny's again

I'm just going to go ahead and make a label for Denny's because it's so close and we're bound to go here...too many times.

My commentary will also be short simply because there are too many dishes to talk about and because most are self explanatory.


This particular day we came just because we had filled out two point cards and were now ripe for a free dessert each. I have to say the surprise was a little disappointing because it happened to be a plate of ice cream. But all were better than most ice cream I've had so I've made my peace.


kiwi sorbet, strawberry sorbet, vanilla, blueberry, bitter caramel, and pumpkin (my favorite)

Denny's

デニーズ
There's a Denny's a few blocks down from our apt building but I'm sure they're scattered around Tokyo. Everything is decently priced and there's a big selection covering Western, Japanese, the usual breakfast lunch & dinner and seasonal desserts.


Above are the Pumpkin Milk Pudding Mini Parfait（３９０円） and Chocolate Mini Sundae（３５０円）.　Lisa liked the sundae enough to order it twice in a row. And I'm neither a fan of pudding nor one of parfaits but thoroughly enjoyed かぼちゃparfait. The pumpkin icecream has great flavor and texture. Sandier than the vanilla that sits below it but sandy in a good way.





This is the 400円　パパイヤ　
I have talked myself into thinking of it as a healthful investment.

Pizza Hut

Pizza hut is so much better in Asia--fact.
Lisa (current roommate and lover forevs) and I ordered two nights in a row. The Pizza Huts in Japan encourage online ordering which allows you to pick your pizza and add/subtract toppings (cool option). This first pizza was the Camembert sauce pizza with mushrooms and bacon. We made no subtractions despite my no red meat "thing" of 2009. I've been obsessed with Camembert cheese ever since watching Ebichu. But please don't ask about that.



Comes only in Medium at １６００円

The second night was clam chowder pizza with clam, broccoli, potato, and things that make it taste like clam chowder. I think I liked this even better.

M １６００円
Their estimated delivery time is 40 minutes but both times have been within that time-frame. They give you complimentary Oolong tea and a receipt even if you select "do not need receipt."
Since it seemed that lisa and I would continue to order I became a ピザハットクラブmember. Sweet.

Strawberry Scones

I had such a sticky time with these that I don't think I will bake scones again but here's your eyecandy. enjoy~
