The display case

Look in the glass first.

You arrive at the sign, but you stop at the case. Two tiers, cakes on wooden boards, a small standing card beside each one — choosing starts with looking, not reading.

Flavours on the case cards

Traditional, honey, matcha and chocolate cheesecakes, plus Honey Earl Grey Madeleine — the names as written on the wall and the case cards. No menu list here; the case does the showing.

Original

The traditional flavour — the golden-topped whole cake the shop is known for.

Matcha

The green-tea flavour, named on the display-case card beside the cake.

Chocolate

The dark-cocoa flavour, named on the display-case card beside the cake.

Take one home.

A whole cake in the red and white carry box — the box is the last thing the case hands you.
