It is getting near CNY so went here to get some Matcha gifts for friends.There is a good variety at Uji-En from snacks to drinks, not sure what my friend wanted so got some Matcha Wafer rolls for $98 and this instant drink for $58.After shopping for gifts, stopped by for noodles.There are four different noodles to choose from and I chose the Japanese plum Namacha Men because I didn't feel like any meat that day.As with all Japanese noodles, the bonito broth was light and clear served hot which w
After shopping for gifts, stopped by for noodles.There are four different noodles to choose from and I chose the Japanese plum Namacha Men because I didn't feel like any meat that day.
As with all Japanese noodles, the bonito broth was light and clear served hot which was comforting on a cold day.The broth isn't strong which is really good because when you mix the plum, the tartness of the plum accentuates the broth making it even more moreish and appetizing.
Finished lunch with two must order desserts: Hojicha Jelly and The Hojicha Tea set.
+++
Hojicha Jelly:
Again, the tea flavours are perfectly balanced and the softserve is not too sweet which goes with the jelly and Anmitsu and starchy red beans.
+++Hojicha Tiramisu:
The Tiramisu was just light and fluffy, while the top was creamy and evilicious.
It was sweet but not cloyingly sweet paired nicely with the hot tea.
+++Definitely coming back again for other desserts when I am in the area.
