About
Inside Takashimaya’s first floor near the florist section, this dessert counter is known for plant-based gelato in flavors like yuzu, matcha, and Kyoto Premium pistachio. Flower-decorated designs have been a draw, but reviews say they’re not always available; regular scoops, waffles, brownies, and drinks make for an easier shopping break, though prices are considered high by some visitors.
