cafe VAVA

You should definitely try the cream puffs at this shop! They are superb. The dough is gluten-free and moist, the cream has a rich milk flavor, and the chocolate is not too sweet with a strong cocoa flavor. The custard cream is also delicious. The angel shrimp burger had a soft bun and was very delicious. The exquisite royal milk tea had a sweet cream on top that matched well with the strong black tea. The tea leaves have the distinctive scent of Earl Grey. The rich milk tea was delicious. I heard from people around me that the pancakes, Monti Cristo, and parfaits were also delicious! It's a very charming shop.

There is always a line at this cafe on weekends. I didn't see any lines on weekdays so I decided to go. The interior has a calm atmosphere. I'm glad that the customers are on the older side. The staff are also polite. There is a wide selection on the menu. I think they promote gluten-free items. The strawberry parfait I had was also gluten-free. I thought it was refreshing and delicious. Some of the set drinks allow you to have refills, so I thought it was good value for money. I'll definitely be coming back here.

Visited on April 2025. This shop is located on the 3rd floor of Nihonbashi Takashimaya. It was a busy day even though it was a weekday evening. I ordered a drink set of azuki & soft serve ice cream pancakes. I thought the drink set was a little expensive, but I'm glad that it's all-you-can-drink. The most important thing, the pancakes, are gluten-free and made with rice flour, so are they chewy? When I thought about it, it far exceeded my expectations. It's very strange, because it looks like a gummy bear in a "good way". Of course the red bean paste was delicious, but the soft serve ice cream was milky and quite delicious. I feel like I just want to eat a lot of soft serve ice cream. The afternoon tea also looks satisfying, and I'd definitely like to come again.
