The Top 20 Desserts in Taitō, 東京都

Fresh reviews:

I heard this place had the best doriyaki and so i decided to make a stop here and it was well worth it. Its about 250 yen for one but it’s freshly made. lines can get long but that’s a good sign as far as finding good food goes. they have ice cream as well, which i didn’t try.

The offerings are the same, and you can pay a little extra for Hagen Dazs ice cream, or extra for 20 more minutes to eat. 70 minutes (the standard amount) is more than enough, and unless you like gelato, just get…
