Located in the Kuwanon area of Chuo Ward. It is inside the Kuwanon Aeon mall. It opens at 9 am, which is great for weekday morning activities. It is a shop operated by Shiroi Koibito Ishiya. I have had a disappointing experience with their products at Esta before, but I will give it another try. I ordered the Pochidora Set (650 yen), which includes two dorayaki, soft serve ice cream, pickled vegetables, and green tea. The Strawberry and Pistachio dorayaki didn't have much pistachio flavor. It was a small dorayaki without any distinctive features. The Hamburger dorayaki was served warm, and the dough was not too sweet, so it went well with the hamburger filling. The soft serve ice cream was just regular, not the Shiroi Koibito flavor. The pickled vegetables were interesting, but I think it could use more salt. The green tea was not very tasty. Overall, I was not impressed with the offerings from Ishiya Seika. Thank you for the meal!

After returning from the hot springs at Sawayama Station, I stopped by Ion for tea time. I was intrigued by the small dorayaki from Ishiya Charyo, but I also wanted to have soft serve ice cream. I decided to get the Pochi-dora set for 650 yen, which allowed me to enjoy both. It came with tea and pickles, which was a nice touch for a palate cleanser. The size was just right and I was satisfied with my choice.

Snack time in January 2023 (๑´∀`) at AEON Kasano 1F, the new store of Ishiya Seika, a small sweet café called "Ishiya Chabo." In a place with many children, they offer a small dorayaki set called "Pochidora Set" for 650 yen, which includes a choice of two dorayaki, soft serve ice cream, and tea. The dorayaki with the highest price is the "Strawberry Pistachio." It has just the right amount of sweetness and a consistent taste. The size is perfect for a little snack, and the ample soft serve ice cream is delicious even when paired with the dorayaki. The pickles for palate cleansing used to be puzzling in the past, but now they are appreciated. Enjoying a warm tea, feeling content (*´ω｀) Thank you for the meal (^ω^)

During the New Year holiday, I went to Aeon after having lunch. There aren't many shops open early in the New Year, so Aeon was a convenient choice. I headed to a shop opened by Ishiya Seika, known for their Shiroi Koibito cookies, which offers dorayaki and soft serve ice cream. I was curious about the dorayaki they offer, so I was glad to find the shop in the food court at Aeon. I decided to try the dorayaki soft serve, which comes in three flavors: white chocolate, Uji matcha, and mixed. I chose the mixed flavor this time. The dorayaki soft serve was served in a cup with plenty of soft serve, dorayaki skin, and red bean paste. The soft serve had a rich white chocolate flavor with a good balance of sweetness and the aroma of matcha. The dorayaki skin was a bit chewy, which was a bit disappointing. The red bean paste had a delicate sweetness and paired well with the soft serve and skin. Despite promoting the dorayaki, the skin was not as good as expected. I might try a different menu item next time. Thank you for the meal.

During the year-end and New Year holidays, I visited here which I had been interested in before it opened. Is this the only place where you can eat Dorayaki Soft Serve with matcha flavor? I know they have white and chocolate flavors, but I wonder if they are available elsewhere. It was my first time seeing it, so I chose the mix flavor. The matcha flavor has a nice bitterness and is refreshing. The white flavor is slightly sweet, so the balance was good. Actually, I thought the soft serve alone was delicious enough, but for an extra 50 yen, you can get red bean paste and a Dorayaki shell, which might be a better deal... The Dorayaki shell and red bean paste give a sweet impression. Also, the container is nice and cold! I'm happy about that. The cost performance of just the Dorayaki Soft Serve seems decent, but since the Dorayaki shell is not my preference, I'm not sure if I would choose the Pochi-Dora when I revisit... unexpectedly, meeting the delicious matcha soft serve was the most exciting part for me! Thank you, Wu-ta-san!

When I saw the Dorayaki parfait, it had soft serve ice cream, ice cream, Dorayaki skin, agar jelly, sweet red bean paste, etc. all packed into a not too big glass. It's a parfait with a Japanese twist that gives a satisfying feeling. It's sweeter than expected, so I recommend it for those with a sweet tooth. It takes a bit of time to be ready. They have a point card. When all stamps are collected, you can get one free Dorayaki. Thank you for the meal.

The store has been open for a while now, so there was no line. The Pochidora Set includes two of your choice of dorayaki, soft serve ice cream, tea, and pickles. I chose custard and egg salad dorayaki. The mini-sized dorayaki were easy to eat. The soft serve ice cream is also mini-sized. With green tea and pickles, it leaves a refreshing aftertaste. The green tea is served at the perfect temperature, not too hot or too cold.

There was a new dorayaki shop by Ishiya Seika in the food court at Sanko Aeon. I couldn't resist trying the soft serve ice cream, haha. The dorayaki was a cute and compact size. They had a set menu too, but I opted for the dorayaki with soft serve for 380 yen. It was a good size after having a meal. But honestly, the soft serve alone would have been just fine, haha.

Review of a new brand store by Ishiya Seika, famous for Shiroi Koibito, located on the first floor food court of AEON Sapporo Kuwanazono store in 2022. The signature item is the palm-sized dorayaki called "Pochidora," but they also offer soft serve, parfaits, anmitsu, zenzai, and other Japanese sweets. I tried the Pochidora set (650 yen) which includes two dorayaki flavors, soft serve, tea, and pickles. I chose "red bean paste" and "custard cream" for the dorayaki. The red bean paste is made by a group company called Sazae Shokuhin, so it was delicious. The soft serve had a rich and dense texture, and overall, the portion size was a bit small but satisfying for those who enjoy sweets.

"It is a designated rare disease by the government, which worsens particularly in hot weather. Unfortunately, there is no cure for my rare disease yet. Treatment involves administering 'blood products' for five consecutive days, temporarily improving symptoms. Last year, I was hospitalized five times for rare disease treatment. I was discharged in September for the fourth time this year, but I have already scheduled my fifth hospitalization for this month. Due to the rapid spread of COVID-19 and multiple clusters in hospitals, my admission may be delayed. Your encouraging comments have always been a source of strength during my hospital stays. I am truly grateful. Thank you for your continued support. As of November 2022, I have been discharged but will continue to review based on my health condition. Due to poor health, comments and replies may be delayed. I will respond as soon as my condition improves, so please be patient. 'Ishiya Tea House' is a new concept store affiliated with Ishiya Confectionery, famous for 'Shiroi Koibito.' It is a Japanese-style cafe specializing in small 'Pochi Dora' dorayaki. It opened in November 2022. I visited for the first time with my usual companion for dessert after lunch. The store is located in the food court on the first floor of 'AEON Sapporo Kuwaen Store' in the Kuwaen area of ​​Chuo-ku, Sapporo, near JR Kuwaen Station. Please check the exact location on Tabelog. I visited around 2 pm on a weekday. There were five customers before me and about seven customers after me. The space used to be occupied by 'Dessert Kingdom' and the juice bar 'Karin.' The 'Pochi Dora Set' includes about eight types ranging from 130 yen to 200 yen. Soft serve ice cream comes in milk, matcha, and mixed flavors. There are also trendy drinks with warabi mochi. I ordered the 'Pochi Dora Set' for 680 yen, where you can choose your favorite 'Pochi Dora' in a set of two. We both chose the most expensive 'Strawberry Pistachio' for 200 yen each. The 'Pochi Dora Set' is a nice Japanese-style confectionery set that is also a good deal. The intense green tea and pickled radish served with it are enjoyable. The open commemorative offer was a free 'Pochi Dora' of your choice with a payment of 500 yen or more. Of course, I chose 'Strawberry Pistachio' for 200 yen. I might go for the 'Pochi Dora Set' next time too. It was a delicious meal. Thank you."

Ishiya's specialty is dorayaki. I decided to line up and purchased chestnut dorayaki for 180 yen and strawberry dorayaki for 180 yen. Unfortunately, custard and whipped cream were sold out. The dorayaki was quite small in size, I finished it in two bites. The skin was quite dry and not very impressive. The strawberry filling was overflowing. Maybe they will make improvements in the future? They also offer parfaits, which looked cute, and pasta as well.

A new dessert paradise has opened in the place where there used to be one before. I thought it would be crowded, but there were only about two people in line. The Dorayaki Parfait consists of matcha black honey soft serve ice cream, red bean paste, dorayaki skin, agar jelly, and more. It's a Japanese-style parfait and quite sweet. The portion size is just right and the price is reasonable, as expected from a company from Hokkaido.

In 2022, "Ishiya Seika" renewed its Chikaho store and showed a new side, but now it has opened a new type of store at the food court of Aeon Kuwonen store, called "Ishiya Charyo," with a strangely Japanese-inspired image. I visited on November 17, 2022, about a week after the opening, and there was still a line of about 20 people in front of the store. A middle-aged man in a suit with long hair handed me a menu called "Pochidora," a mini-sized dorayaki being the main product, along with soft serve ice cream, parfaits, anmitsu, zenzai, and three types of pasta. The young male staff at the counter was mass-producing the "Pochidora skin" on a hot plate. After waiting for about ten minutes, I ordered the "Dora Soft (Uji Matcha) @380." The bell rang when the time-consuming product was ready, and it was served on the spot. I sat at the food court and received a kon blue thick ceramic bowl filled with "Uji matcha soft serve, sweet red bean paste, and Pochidora skin." The matcha flavor in the soft serve was not very strong, making me wonder if it was homemade. The sweet red bean paste was quite sweet, but it paired decently with the mildly sweet soft serve. The Pochidora skin was a bit weak in texture, perhaps due to being cold, and I wondered about making dorayaki with it. The mini size costing 130-200 yen, isn't it better to buy a normal size dorayaki at any Japanese sweets shop? It seems like the novelty is causing the long lines, but I wonder if they are jumping the gun a bit. The customer management was being handled by the middle-aged man staff. Thank you for the meal.

The sweet smell in the food court... couldn't resist. I enjoyed a mix of Dorayaki soft serve with Uji matcha with my daughter. The combination of Sazae-san's sweet bean paste and Dorayaki skin with soft serve is really good. #Ishiya Tea House #Ishiya Confectionery #Food Court #Sapporo Sweets #Sapporo List #Awesome Sweets #Hokkaido Sweets

Visited the open day in the evening. They sell Pochidora, pasta, and soft-serve ice cream. They also offer unique items like a parfait using dorayaki. There are a total of 8 types of Pochidora, ranging from 130 yen for red bean to 200 yen for strawberry pistachio. The Pochidora set for 650 yen includes your choice of 2 Pochidora and soft-serve ice cream with tea. I wanted to try the custard cream or chocolate, but since I can choose anything, I went for the most expensive option, strawberry pistachio, and hamburger, haha. The Pochidora is really small, just one bite. The strawberry and pistachio flavor was a bit overshadowed by the sourness of the strawberry. Overall, I probably wouldn't order these items individually. The hamburger was a bit on the sweet side, like a sweet hamburger, haha. The soft-serve ice cream in the set was vanilla, but it had a hint of saltiness that I really liked. They also had other items like anmitsu and warabi mochi drink. All in all, these might not be the kind of food Totoro would eat, haha.

Light snack used. Visited alone. Below are some thoughts. - Located inside the food court of AEON Kuwanazono store. - Purchased Pochidora's red bean paste dorayaki. - Paid with iD. - Red bean paste inside the dorayaki. - The dough is chewy. - It was very delicious.

The meal was delicious, thank you!
