At the end of shopping in Yotsuya, you can experience a Taiwanese atmosphere at the shop "Yotsuya Ichimochi-do." Located a short walk from Yotsuya Station, down a narrow street in front of the famous taiyaki shop "Wakaba," this shop offers Taiwanese sweets and savory doujiang (soy milk) for a taste of Taiwan. The shop has a cute atmosphere with plenty of wood used in the interior. They use 100% Hokkaido flour and 100% domestic soy milk for their products. One of their popular items is the "Pepper Biscuit," which is baked in a kiln and takes about 30 minutes to be ready for sale from around 11 am. The biscuit is generously filled with sesame seeds and has a strong aroma. It is spicy and flavorful, with a good balance of meat, green onions, and spices. Another item, the "Purple Sweet Potato Pastry," has a beautiful gradient of purple and a rich sweet potato filling. Both items were delicious, and I look forward to trying more of their offerings in the future.

Lunch dessert after lunch on 09/26 (Tuesday) ... Yotsuya Ichimonji-do ... Pepper bun for 518 yen ... Suica ... Takeout ... Good customer service, fast service, delicious taste, good portion size, good value for money, be careful as there may be meat juice coming out from inside the bun depending on how you eat it (because it was hot). As the name suggests, the pepper is strong and serves as a good accent, upgrading the entire bun. The crispy skin and soft filling inside are unbalanced, but when combined, they become addictive!

Located in a back alley in Yotsuya, across from the taiyaki shop Wakaba. I have always liked soy milk and have made it myself or gone to shops to eat it. Finally, I visited this place as well. I visited around 11 o'clock when the pepper cakes were supposed to be ready. I was able to enter without waiting in line, perhaps because it was early for lunch. I had salty soy milk and pepper cakes. The pepper cakes were about the size of a convenience store meat bun and had a satisfying texture. The pepper cakes were delicious with plenty of green onions and pepper. I definitely want to come back for this! I also took home some sesame cakes and crispy cakes. These were more like pies.

This is a shop I've always wanted to visit! The salty soy milk was very delicious. It had a gentle taste like cotton tofu, with various ingredients added for richness. I felt like I could eat it for breakfast every day. I've had pepper buns before, but I enjoyed the separate layers of vegetables and meat in this one, with a satisfying texture. The pineapple cake was not to my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The service was quick and attentive, making the whole experience very pleasant. Thank you very much.

The shaved ice was delicious with a perfect melt-in-your-mouth texture, and the tea sweets had a subtle and calming flavor that paired well with tea. I arrived at the shop around 12 PM on Tuesday and about 40% of the seats were already taken. I was seated immediately and ordered the shaved ice and tea sweets. The shaved ice was so delicious that I finished it in no time. The tea sweets had a soothing flavor that truly complemented tea.

Once again, it's Shentoujan Yotsuya. It's a town that I don't usually visit, but I wanted to check it out. I had breakfast here since they open early in the morning. The food comes in a large cup-like bowl, with a soup-like consistency and not too many solid ingredients. It was my first time trying shirasu (whitebait), along with the classic pickled vegetables and fried bread. It's more like a soup or porridge than a full meal. This place seems to be famous for its pepper buns. The area is really impressive with its famous taiyaki shop and longstanding castella cake store on the corner.

The pie without using lemon pie butter is not too sweet, with a mild sweetness of lemon filling and lemon peel on top. It is a hand-sized, round, cute dessert that is easy to eat when chilled. The texture is soft and I personally like it. ❤️

Pepper cakes are becoming more popular lately, but they are still quite rare. I sometimes go to Yotsuya just for this. I love the strong spice flavor, so this is currently my favorite place to eat in Japan. When I visit, I eat one in the store and take two to go. The Shentoujan (spicy sauce) was also delicious.

A few years ago, a Taiwanese breakfast and dessert shop opened in Yotsuya. It gets crowded early in the morning. On this day, I ordered black sesame steamed buns, sesame bread, and hot soy milk. The black sesame steamed bun has sweet sesame inside and a cookie-like texture on the outside. It's small, so it's convenient for when you just want a little something. The sesame bread has a crispy baked dough with plenty of sesame on top, a simple choice. There is also a version with scrambled eggs inside, which is also very delicious, so be sure to try it!

I visited the restaurant around 12 o'clock on a regular day. About 70-80% of the seats were filled. I ordered a pepper bun and shengjianbao. For the pepper bun, I was given a number tag and had to wait a few minutes. When it was ready, it was very hot, with juices oozing out from the center, so be careful when eating. The shengjianbao was new to me, but it was delicious and healthy, I would like to eat it again! Water was self-service.

I went to the Taiwanese cafe Yotsuya Ichimochido in Yotsuya, which I had been interested in. I ordered the Shentoujiang (550 yen). I love cafes with coffee and cake, but I also love Taiwanese cafes. Since I was in Yotsuya, I decided to visit this shop, which Google Maps recommended for enjoying Taiwanese sweets and tea. They serve Tokyo's first kettle-baked pepper cakes made with 100% domestically sourced soybeans and homemade tofu. The sweets are made with Hokkaido wheat and other carefully selected ingredients. When I arrived at the shop around 1 pm on a weekday, there were already two customers there. After that, more customers arrived, and by the time I left, more than half of the seats were taken. My friend ordered the pepper cake, which was filled with plenty of ingredients. They also ordered Taiwanese tea, and you could ask for hot water refills. I ordered the Shentoujiang, which was like a soy milk porridge with Youtiao (cut fried breadsticks) in it. Even though it was hot and humid outside that day, the air conditioning inside the shop was strong, making it a bit chilly. So, the warm Shentoujiang was comforting. It was delicious as always. Thank you for the meal.

I use this place regularly. The pepper cake made by a former bread artisan is spicy, juicy, and really delicious. They also have a variety of Taiwanese sweets lined up in the pastry section, which are very cute, and they offer a wide range of tea options, making it a great place for a girls' gathering or a café break. However, the prices are on the higher side, adjusted to be more palatable for Japanese customers, so those seeking the authentic local taste may find it lacking. The atmosphere of the shop is really lovely, so I will definitely be using it again! Thank you very much.

I went to eat pepper cake. The interior of the restaurant was clean and you can choose between a bottle or a cup for Taiwanese tea. I chose the bottle and was told that I could refill it. I also had tofu soup, which had a sour taste that some people may like or dislike. If you feel like eating Taiwanese pepper cake, be sure to visit.

I wanted to eat salty soy milk and pepper cake, planning to arrive at exactly 11 o'clock, but ended up arriving right at lunchtime. Due to the rain, there was no line even on the weekend. Ah, it's so relaxing. The salty soy milk was good. You can choose to add chili oil. It warmed up my slightly chilled body. I tried the pepper cake for the first time, and it was quite peppery as the name suggests, with plenty of green onions and very juicy. If it was in my neighborhood, I would definitely want to go there often. On Saturday, I bought some sweets from this place and some taiyaki from Wakaba as souvenirs on my way home.

I visited Yotsuya Ichimido to enjoy my favorite Taiwanese meal. I ordered Shentoujiang (Salty Soy Milk) for 500 yen and Youtiao (Fried Dough Sticks) for 180 yen. When asked, I requested the staff to add chili oil. They advised me to mix it slowly and enjoy. The warm soy milk reacted with vinegar and turned into a soft tofu-like texture. I tore the Youtiao by hand, added it in, and enjoyed the enhanced flavor. After finishing, I returned to the office and had Taiwanese tea and pineapple cake given by Taiwanese clients as a delicious dessert.

I usually buy pepper cakes that are sold after 11 am, but I was able to purchase them at 8 am, so I bought them for breakfast. I arrived around 8:20 am and there were about 3 groups dining inside the store. I ordered at the register and waited for a little bit. I brought them home and reheated them. The pepper cakes had plenty of sesame seeds on the surface, the skin was thin, and the pepper in the filling had just the right amount of flavor. There was plenty of green onions, so the pepper cakes were large, but surprisingly easy to eat in one go.

I love the pepper cakes here. I can't forget the pepper cakes I had in a narrow alley near Lungshan Temple in Taipei, where there was always a long line. I'm always looking for that taste. Whenever I come to Yotsuya, I always get takeout. I've never eaten inside the restaurant, but I love their pepper cakes and peanut mochi.

It has a cozy and calm atmosphere. The signature dishes are soy milk soup and pepper cake. Everything is delicious, so there are hardly any disappointments. I went two days in a row in one week. It's recommended for girls' night out or a date. The only downside is that they have many days when they are closed.

I went at 11:30 and found a seat. There were already two groups there. You order and pay at the counter. Water is self-service. By around 12 o'clock, it was full. I tried ordering a popular menu item (the name was difficult, haha). The pepper bun seems to be popular, but personally, I was drawn to the colorful sweets. I want to try ordering that next time.

This is a Taiwanese cafe located in Yotsuya Ichome. They serve Taiwanese breakfast items such as "doujiang" and "youbing" from 8:00 in the morning. They also offer Taiwanese snacks, tea, and drinks, and from 11:00, you can enjoy freshly baked "hujiaobing". The cafe opened in October 2020 and is operated by E-Work Co., Ltd. It's about a 4-5 minute walk from Yotsuya Station. The interior has a calming atmosphere with wooden tones and various seating options. I visited in the morning and the service was friendly. I ordered salty doujiang and a youbing sandwich with egg, both of which were delicious. I enjoyed the Taiwanese-style breakfast and would love to visit again.
