“Nishinomiya Kajuten” was doing a pop-up at the rental kitchen “Stage” near Hankyu Ashiyagawa Station, so I went to try their shaved ice!
“Nishinomiya Kajuten” Peach Shaved Ice
Shaved Ice “Peach” 1,200 yen (tax included)
↑ Right after opening, they were serving shaved ice arranged in an incredibly cute flower shape! (Depending on how crowded it gets, it may also be served with diced peach.)
↑ It feels almost too pretty to dig into…! But if I don’t eat it, it’ll melt!
↑ Of course the fresh peach topping is delicious, but the syrup is also wonderfully rich, with a strong peach flavor and aroma!
↑ As I kept eating, it gradually started to melt… but thanks to the thick, rich syrup, even in this state the peachiness really comes through! If anything, as it warmed up a little, it felt like the peach flavor became even more noticeable…?
↑ It was almost like a chilled peach soup, and I enjoyed every last drop!
“Nishinomiya Kajuten” Menu
↑ This was the menu for the day. In addition to peach, they also had citrus, watermelon, and even a rare pumpkin shaved ice!
