Shiseido Parlour is serving grape parfaits and chestnut desserts until September 30 at its Salon De Café branch in Ginza. Grapes and chestnuts are two foods enjoyed in Japan during autumn.
Shine Muscat & 3 Grape Parfait – ¥1,980
This parfait is made with sweet and juicy shine muscats along with the best and most delicious grapes of the season. The shine muscats are grown at Iizukakaju Orchards in Nagano Prefecture. The parfait combines all of these grapes with homemade sherbet which perfectly complements the refreshing milk ice cream and a grape jelly that tastes great when it goes down. It’s drizzled in a pink grapefruit sauce that adds a sourness and bitterness to the layers of flavour.
Chestnut Bavarois – ¥1,980 (w/ coffee or tea)
This bavarois is an exquisite combination of chestnuts from Gifu Prefecture and matcha. The large chestnuts are candied in brown sugar and put luxuriously into the bavarois. On top are cookies with orange peel in them and a matcha sauce for added texture. You’ll enjoy tasting the matcha and vanilla marble ice cream together.
Fujiminori & Suihou Grape Special Parfait – ¥1,728
This parfait will be sold at the Nihonbashi Takashimaya, Yokohama Takashimaya and Sogo Yokohama branches of Shiseido Parlour.
It’s made with two kinds of grapes from the town of Katsunuma in Yamanashi Prefecture: fujiminori grapes which are juicy and not too sour, and suihou, a white variety of grape that’s sweet with a slight tinge of sourness.
Experience the gorgeous flavours of Japan’s beautiful autumn-time desserts.

While shopping complexes such as Tokyu Plaza and GINZA SIX are on the rise, Ginza itself is a city that has been bustling with energy for a long time. It’s packed full of traditional and new shops and brings in people from all ages, young and old, and prides itself as the place to go during everyone’s days off. In this article we want to introduce to you some highly recommended shops and restaurants in Ginza.
Soft and “melty” omelet-rice “Kissa You”
“Kissa You” is located in Ginza, famous for Kabuki. The main reason most people come here is the soft and “melty“ omelet-rice which represents Japanese food nowadays.
You can hardly encounter this type of omelet-rice which is this smooth and light in texture. I recommend you drink “Kobu-tea” after the meal as the “Japanese way.”

With bookshelves reaching 6 meters tall, you are sure to find at least 1 book that suits you. And the light that filters through the skylight is sure to calm your heart.
What is more likely to catch your eye is the event space which hosts daily arts and culture events themed around traditional Edo culture and the more modern Tokyo Culture. As part of the GINZA SIX’s opening, there are performances by Mika Ninagawa and others running until the end of May.
Hungry and need food? Head on up to the 2nd floor!

You’ll most definitely get your fill here, from famous food shops to old-fashioned restaurants that until now you could only experience in their place of origin!
When the influx of Western culture entered Japan 100 years ago, Ginza, which had flourished as a high colour city, was the hub for café culture. It was famous for having the most delicious cafés around, and was dubbed “Café Europe.” 100 years on, and tourists inside and outside of Japan continue to visit Ginza. GINZA SIX keeps hold of this trend and offers a taste of the legend of these stores which have gone unchanged for 100 years.

Kobe is filled with famous sightseeing spots like the nostalgic Ijinkan neighborhood and port. The city is packed with fashionable shops and restaurants and is highly regarded for its selection of tasty sweets!
The port city, with over 150 years of history, has fostered a unique and diverse culinary culture.
Recently, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu began starring in a series of promotional videos for the Gastropolis Kobe project. The artist traveled to the city to partake in plenty of delicious treats, and MOSHI MOSHI NIPPON went along for the ride! Here are some of the singer’s favorite spots around town.
Kobe, known as a city where East meets West, is lined with sweets shops that are unique to the area.
The tea salon TOOTH TOOTH Dekoboko Sabo opened in 2019 in the Kobe City Museum and offers a menu that mixes Western food and sweets with tea and ingredients from traditional Japanese cuisine. Kyary ordered the Dekoboko Sabo Afternoon Tea Set, a collection of western sweets blended with the essence of traditional Japanese flavors. Guests are invited to enjoy their tea and sweets in a one-of-a-kind space filled with Meiji period flare and retro Western furniture. Those interested will need to make a reservation, so be sure to remember the next time you’re in Kobe.
TOOTH TOOTH Decoboco Sabo
Address: 24 Kyomachi, Chuo Ward, Kobe (Inside the Kobe City Museum)
Hours: 9:30-17:30 (Last Order at 16:30)
Closed Mondays
Official Site: https://toothtooth.com/restaurant/decoboco-sabo
The next stop was Kobe Nankin-machi, one of the three major Chinatowns in Japan. Kobe MILK is known nationwide for its Apricot Pudding, which is made with local ingredients. The raw apricot pudding is mixed with milk brought from the foot of Mt. Rokko and other ingredients from Hyogo Prefecture. Of course, Kyary ordered some, and was amazed by its fluffy texture. You can only enjoy it in Kobe–also, the shop sells other puddings mixed with seasonal fruits, so don’t miss those either!
Kobe MILK
Address: Shin-Motomachi Building 1F (1 Motomachi-dori, Chuo-ku, Kobe)
Hours: Weekdays 9:30-19:00 / Weekends 9:30-19:30

For Kyary’s final stop, the singer visited the Moore House, a cafe located in a building with over 100 years of history. Guests are surrounded by greenery, and the Western-style building is incredibly elegant. The Strawberry Mille-feuille Kyary ordered was created by an expert patissier and based on the strawberry mille-feuille recipe from the legendary French restaurant Maxim’s de Paris in Ginza. A generous amount of custard cream complements the crispy pie crust and enhances the sweetness of the fresh strawberries. We’d recommend it with a glass of champagne–if you’re of age.
Kitano Ijin-kan Moore House
Address: 2-9-3 Kitanocho, Chuo-ku, Kobe
Hours: 11:00-17:00
Closed Tuesdays

On July 18, the upscale teppanyaki and yakiniku restaurant Honten Yamashina opened a new location in Ginza! The hybrid restaurant has taken over the entire top floor of GINZA PLACE, which is directly connected to Ginza Station. Overlooking the Ginza 4-chome intersection, it’s a gorgeous place to enjoy some authentic Japanese cuisine.
Honten Yamashina mainly uses fully-matured Omi beef, the highest grade available among Shiga Prefecture’s top-tier beef, from Okazaki Farm. The cows are allowed to fatten for a considerable amount of time and live stress-free lives for over 40 months. Less than 1% of all Wagyu cattle are shipped after 24 months of age, and this delectable meat is characterized by its sharp taste and fattiness.

Japanese-style Teppanyaki
Guests can enjoy authentic Japanese teppanyaki cuisine with a modern twist. While sitting at the contour, visitors will enjoy a live performance by Taku Osada, a teppanyaki chef with over 20 years of experience.
The wide variety of meat can be enjoyed in a number of different ways, whether it be raw, grilled, stewed, or properly cooked. From tongue and rump to filet and sirloin, you won’t leave hungry. Visitors can also enjoy seafood and seasonal Japanese vegetables along with their meat, and the flowers and leaves that adorn each plate will change depending on the time of year.
In addition to rare teppanyaki dishes like skirt steak and 3cm-thick beef tongue, Honten Yamashina also offers some playful dishes such as sliders. As the temperature differs on different parts of the steel cooking plate, each item can be cooked to a temperature that maximizes its specific flavor. Honten Yamashina also has a massive cellar housin over 1,000 bottles of wine and hard-to-find spirits.
Japanese-style Yakiniku
For those looking for a more private experience, guests can enjoy yakiniku in a completely separate room. Each private room has a grill that will cook meat to the perfect temperature, and only at Honten Yamashina can you enjoy fully-matured Omi beef. The signature cutlet sandwich is made with chateaubriand cooked at a low temperature and deep-fried in a thin batter, then served on crispy bread with a soft, fluffy interior.
Teppanyaki and yakiniku are typically thought of as meat-based dishes, but the restaurant can accommodate vegetarian guests if contacted in advance.
When Japan opens up to tourism, will you be visiting this incredible restaurant in the heart of Tokyo?
