A typhoon is coming, should I evacuate to Osaka? But Osaka seems to be more severe. At that time, a friend called and invited me to come over to their apartment in the heart of Kyoto. They had leftovers from a dinner party and told me to come over. When I arrived, they had prepared plenty of snacks - cheesecake and raisin butter sandwiches. The cheesecake is small, soft, fluffy, and goes well with wine. The raisin butter sandwich is filled with lots of raisins and delicious. We enjoyed the snacks while listening to the sound of the typhoon outside. It was very delicious but a bit heavy and sweet. We realized we were not very hungry during lunch because we had filled up on the butter sandwiches. Thanks to the snacks, we were able to stay safe and comfortable in the secure apartment during the passing of the typhoon. We are grateful to our friend for their hospitality. We decided to stay one more night to avoid any worries on the way back home.

The restaurant is located within a 5-minute walk from the Shinkoin-mae bus stop. For sightseeing, taking the subway from Kitaoji and then a city bus might be faster. By car, you can pass by MG shop and make a left turn. There is parking space for 9 cars, which is relatively well-equipped. The bakery offers a variety of baked goods on the left side, seasonal cakes on the right, and cheesecakes on the right side. Cheesecakes can be purchased as a set or individually. The location is convenient, but there is no seating area, only take-out. The main attraction is the cheesecake, which needs to be refrigerated and has a shelf life of 3 days. It may be more suitable for locals, nearby residents, or experienced visitors staying in hotels. Despite the challenges in accessibility for tourists, the bakery's popularity is due to its quality products. The bakery offers a wide selection of baked goods and delicious cakes, with the cheesecake being a standout item. The exterior features a bright grass roof, and the interior is a soft and stylish Western-style building. The staff are friendly and attentive, adding to the overall appeal of the bakery. The Prince B cake with melon, pudding, sponge cake, and whipped cream was light and perfect for summer. The matcha cheesecake with a brick-like structure was also delightful. Overall, the bakery offers a good selection of cakes and desserts at a reasonable price. Additionally, their roll cakes are thick and cost-effective. For sightseeing, events at Kamigamo Shrine are recommended, especially the horse racing event and handmade market. Other events like the Aoi Festival are also worth attending. Personally, I find the Uzumitori sumo wrestling event intriguing. For lunch, options like Imai Shokudo or Misohashi Sakai are recommended. Don't forget to stop by Karon for souvenirs, which will enhance your experience as a seasoned visitor in Kyoto.

This is a famous Western confectionery shop in Kyoto. The seal on the box is cute. Inside the box, there is a cheesecake that is moist and has a strong cheese flavor. It has a short shelf life, indicating that they use high-quality ingredients. The texture is soft and the cheese flavor is rich and delicious. The individually wrapped packaging makes it a perfect souvenir and the size is just right for a quick snack.

I came to buy the strawberry roll cake from Karyo in Kyoto, and despite it being a weekday, the parking lot was full because it is a very popular cake shop. The price is very reasonable at 389 yen per slice. The elegant sweetness, fluffy sponge cake made with eggs, creamy whipped cream, and smooth custard cream make it a delicious cake that makes you want to keep coming back for more. They also sell a whole cake for 1,556 yen, but please be sure to eat it before the expiration date on the day of purchase. The stick cheesecake is also very popular. Be sure to check it out. The shop is closed on Tuesdays.

The cakes here are cheap and really delicious. I recommend the roll cake, which is about twice as thick as usual and the custard inside is very tasty. It's the kind of taste that makes you want to eat it every day if you're nearby. It costs 389 yen per slice, which is quite a good deal. A whole roll cake costs 1556 yen. This cake shop is highly recommended.

I stopped by during my cycling trip. Nishikamo Cheese is sold separately from the cheesecake, and you can buy just one if you like. The orange flavor is ready after 2 p.m., so I bought the other two flavors. The expiration date is about 3 days. One of them is small and comes in a box, so it could be a nice gift. Thank you for the meal!

I've always been curious about Nishikamo Cheese. I heard they were having a special event at Kyoto Daimaru, so I went to buy some! They were selling two types of cheese: cheese and chocolate. They were small, so you can easily eat both in one go. They were fluffy and light, with a refreshing taste. The elegant size makes it guilt-free even when on a diet. \( ･ᴗ･ )

Visited for the cheesecake. Also bought canelés and apple pie. The cheesecake was moist and when you put it in your mouth, the fluffy soufflé melted smoothly down your throat. The apple pie was cut from a whole pie. The pie crust was crispy and inside were big chunks of apples, which was also delicious. The staff's customer service was excellent. Highly recommended restaurant.

The cake shop in Kita Ward, which I don't have the opportunity to visit often. I was happy to see that they have a parking lot, but it was a bit crowded with many customers and some waiting for parking. It was Sunday afternoon, and even then, cakes in the showcase were quickly running out, and I noticed that two price cards were already taken off. Cakes with beautifully arranged peaches and strawberries caught my eye, and I felt that they have a good sense of aesthetics. The prices seemed reasonable for Kyoto standards, and the cakes were not too big, but had an elegant size. The taste was refined and delicious, with a subtle sweetness.

Once again, my wife and I visited Kyoto on a weekday. We bought some pastries from Patisserie Karan at Kyoto Daimaru's event. [Summary] Nishigamo Cheese for 108 yen is a repeat purchase. Just like last time, it's incredibly light and fluffy. It feels like you're eating a cloud. It stays fresh for three days, including the day of purchase.

Celebrating my son's academic achievement with a stroll in Kyoto. At my wife's request, we visited a slightly off-the-beaten-path confectionery shop. [Summary] Nishigamo Cheese [Single] 108 yen - A hand-sized cheese cake measuring about 20x20mm in thickness and 50mm in length. Fluffy, almost melting in the mouth sensation. Similar to the fizziness of carbonated water. Resembles a milk steamed bun with cream cheese. So light and delicious, you could eat as many as you want. Shelf life is three days, including the purchase date. Matcha Cheese [Single] 125 yen - Similar in size and weight. The cheese flavor is followed by the depth of matcha. A hint of bitterness at the end. Also delicious in its own way. Sakura Nishigamo Cheese [Single] 125 yen - Along with cheese, the pickled cherry blossom salt comes to the forefront. The moderate saltiness enhances the cheese flavor. Boat-shaped Madeleine 141 yen - A Madeleine measuring about 70x45mm in size and 20mm in thickness. A fluffy castella dough filled with air. Simple ingredients of eggs, butter, and wheat, yet the texture makes it taste delicious. Sweet but refreshing aftertaste. Shelf life is about ten days from the purchase date. Washed Sugar Cookie 184 yen - A crumbly cube cookie measuring about 20x20mm in size and 15mm in thickness. Falls apart easily but the texture of almonds inside is enjoyable. Both the washed sugar and almonds are rich but with a refreshing sweetness, making it quite tasty. Shelf life is about ten days from the purchase date.

- Patisserie Kagan (including tax 233 yen) Nishikamo Cheese (including tax 108 yen) ← Expiration date 3 days. "The flavor of cheese spreads throughout your mouth. The gentle texture melts away with a fizzy sensation. This is a popular product from KARAN." It mainly consists of cream cheese with a touch of Camembert cheese. It's light and has a really soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture. It disappears quickly in your mouth! It's like a souffle cheesecake. Even though it disappears quickly in your mouth, the taste of cheese lingers, making it delicious. - Matcha Cheese (including tax 125 yen) ← Expiration date 3 days. "Using Kyoto matcha, the cheese and matcha complement each other perfectly, creating a new deliciousness." Cream cheese is used for the cheese. There's no way matcha and cheese wouldn't go well together! The texture is the same as the classic Nishikamo Cheese, but the matcha adds a deeper complexity to the flavor, making it delicious.

Located in Nishi-Kamo, Kita-ku. It is further north from Daikaku-ji, near Kamigamo Shrine. They offer Nishikamo Cheesecake and Maple Cheesecake, among others. These are bite-sized cheesecakes that are incredibly soft and rich. They melt in your mouth in an instant. It is quite far from the city center, so it's not easy to visit, but I would like to go back again.

In Nishikamo, there is a cake shop that is famous for its "Nishikamo Cheesecake". Today, at the end of the year, there was a line of people buying souvenirs. I purchased both the "Nishikamo Cheesecake" and the "Nishikamo Cheesecake Maple", and both were moist and delicious. Personally, I preferred the plain one. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal, and thank you very much.

I went to Isetan to buy a Christmas cake. I arrived at 1:45 PM and there was a line extending to the outside staircase. The X'mas matcha tiramisu (600 yen) had a slight bitterness from the matcha, giving it a more adult taste. The reindeer chocolate mousse (450 yen) was the most delicious, probably because I love chocolate. The Santa apple mousse (550 yen) was chosen based on appearance (lol) and tasted average. The fruit tart (520 yen) had a variety of fruits on top, but didn't particularly give off a Christmas vibe.

I bought snacks for my Kyoto trip. I visited "Patisserie Karan" which is within walking distance from the apartment where the children live! The stylish building in the residential area is a must-visit, as it is apparent from the outside that it is popular. Upon entering, it was crowded, probably because it was evening. The staff members were busy attending to the large number of customers. Inside the store, there were plenty of baked goods and confectioneries lined up, making it difficult to choose. The cakes in the showcase also looked delicious, but since we had more places to go after this, we decided to pass on them this time! For our snack, we purchased a cheesecake and butter sandwich. It was nice that you could buy them individually. We enjoyed them in the hotel that night! The cheesecake was as fluffy as rumored, and it melted in my mouth in no time (laughs). It was not too rich, and even though I don't usually eat souffle cheesecake, I found it very delicious. The butter sandwich had plenty of raisins, giving it a rich flavor. It was different from the famous Rokkatei Marusei Butter Sand which I enjoyed. Since the cheesecake doesn't last long, it's a bit difficult to buy it as a souvenir, but they offer delivery services, so that could be a good option. I might ask for it when the kids come back (laughs). Thank you for the meal!

Sagano Cheesecake ◎... Fluffy and airy, doesn't harden even when chilled, and the taste is delicious. I might like it more than Uncle Rikuro's cheesecake. It's a shame that the expiration date is only 3 days, but it's light so it's gone in an instant and seems like a good souvenir gift.

I received a souvenir of cheesecakes - normal and matcha flavors. They were cute in shape and size, and delicious in taste. I personally prefer the normal flavor. It's a popular shop and I was very interested to try it out, but it was really delicious. I would like to visit again.

The Nishikamo cheesecake is a staple here, and I often buy and eat it, but because it has become so common, I don't have a photo of it. On this day, there was also a strawberry shortcake available, so I decided to try that as well. It had a lot of strawberries in it, which gave it a satisfying taste. The sweetness is on the sweeter side, and I think it's delicious. However, I still prefer the cheesecake from this shop.
