Amaikko

This traditional sweet shop is situated on the corner of a residential street, about five minutes from the south exit of Nishi-Ogikubo Station. Inside there are six tables for four each. Choose from a wide variety of traditional Japanese desserts – including azuki bean sweets such as kuri (chestnut) anmitsu, cream anmitsu and inaka-jiruko – as well as more modern treats like the shaved ice dessert kakigori. The ice desserts also come in kids' sizes. Note that kakigori is only available from the end of April to the end of October.
