The shop serves vibrant green desserts like matcha Basque cheesecake, house-made gelato, affogatos, cakes, creme rice, tiramisu and an array of matcha lattes paired with yuzu, strawberry and mango flavors.
On weekends, the shop also serves matcha and plain creme brulee crepe cones, made to order and finished with a caramelized creme brulee top. Fillings include vanilla custard, Hokkaido milk vanilla ice cream, strawberries, bananas, whipped cream, Nutella and crumbled Oreos.
