I passed by walking my husky and noticed the store. Upon entering it seemed like the environment was a bit dark and gloomy. Anyhow, I got a few items to share. The green tea honey sponge cake was pretty good. The tuna bun has a nice decorative top.
My expectations were a bit high. First time and it didn't seem too special. I'll come back to try a few more items and rate again. The desserts looked pretty good.
