  • Honest food reviews in Tokyo
    You’ve probably seen this place all over the internet, it might even be on your Japan food bucket list. It’s a hidden gem in Tokyo called Chacha Futatsume and its in Asakusa - they do this very aesthetic Matcha Mont Blanc dessert in an ice cream cone.
    Our honest review - We found it to be a little bit dry, it could really do with a sweet sauce between the cake layers… but overall still an epic dessert!
    Save this video for places to eat in Tokyo inspo!

    For people who might not know the spaghetti looking paste is actually sweetened chestnut puree, and it's not for everyone, and it can feel dry. X3 I don't mind it, but Mont Blanc can be a bit too sweet in my opinion. I've only had it in Japan to be honest. This matcha one is probably still chestnut puree mixed with matcha, so it might feel even dryer than regular Mont Blanc.

    • @TheFoodInbox

    • @theladycata9648
      @theladycata9648 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      That sounds delicious to me, but it makes sense that the matcha might make it a little dryer than usual so I’d probably try adding the tiniest bit of oil to compensate. If you screw up the amount then you get matcha chestnut butter so it seems like a win either way

    In Germany, “spaghetti ice” has been really popular for decades and you can get it at any ice cream shop that offers a menu. We use vanilla ice cream and it gets placed on top of type of whipped cream and topped with the most delicious and fruity strawberry sauce. I still order it anytime I’m back home and getting ice cream.
    Edit: Forgot to mention the white chocolate shredded all over as the parmesan!

      I used to get spaghetti ice cream all the time when I lived in Germany as a kid in the nineties, and it was exactly as you described - vanilla ice cream in strings of “spaghetti” with red strawberry sauce on top as the “meat/tomato sauce” and white chocolate shavings as the “Parmesan”!
      Germany always had some fantastically creative ice creams for kids! It was a great place to grow up!
