Shimura

This traditional sweet maker, not far from Mejiro Station, is one of Tokyo's most popular spots for kakigori shaved-ice desserts. And deservedly so: doused in syrup laden with real fruit (an all-too-rare sight), these summertime treats look good and taste even better. A selection of savoury dishes such as vegetable curry and onigiri rice balls complements the dessert lineup, and you can also pick up sweets including Shimura's signature tsukumo mochi in the ground-floor shop.
