On a sultry Sunday afternoon, I went to Senbikiya Fruit Parlor on the 2nd floor of Mitsui Tower in Nihonbashi in search of refreshing sweetness.
In the Nihonbashi area There were not so many crowds, but as for Senbikiya, I decided to wait in front of a famous store, about 15 minutes. If you wait, your expectations will increase. In front of the store, there is a signboard of mango parfait because it is the seasonal taste.
Mango is sold at the fruit sales floor on the first floor of Mitsui Tower, which sells over 10,000 yen. For the common people, I was afraid of the price that slightly exceeded the meaning of the word "luxury", so I ordered a peach parfait instead of a mango parfait.
But this is the right answer!
The peaches were fresh, soft, and made them feel the taste of the season, and fresh cream and vanilla ice were never too much forward, elegant sweetness. In order from the parfait, the last one that appears at the end is the peach sauce gently left at the bottom of the glass vessel. This is delicious again! Peach parfait that starts with peaches and ends with peaches is the main character. I was very satisfied.
Sembikiya was founded in 1834 (Tenpo era 5). I was able to feel the traditional taste of 175 years.
