"Tung" seems to be a term in Korean for something that is plump. It seems to refer to a unique type of macaron that is plump. While Pierre Hermé's high-end macarons at 500 yen each are great, I think these would also make a nice White Day gift. Unlike regular macarons, these ones have a thick and luxurious filling, which is why they are called "tung." It might be considered unconventional by macaron purists. I tried a 400 yen chocolate macaron called "Choco Nabi" and the outer shell was perfectly chewy like a traditional macaron. The chocolate cream filling was overflowing and deliciously sweet. The decorations are quite flashy, which is very Korean. The shop is tucked away behind Morishita Station and may not stand out, but all the Tung Macarons are handmade. They've been open for about a year and it's nice to support a place in Morishita that's working hard. I'm sure they would get more attention in Harajuku or Okubo. Also, the customer service was great."

I purchased 4 items: Pistachio (Pumpkin Ghost) for 400 yen tax included, Salty Caramel (White Cat Ghost) for 400 yen tax included, Choco Navi (Mummy Man) for 400 yen tax included, and Oreo (Spider Web) for 400 yen tax included. They were all really cute and carefully made Tuncaron! The sweet cream was soft and delicious. The staff were also friendly and had a warm atmosphere.

Near Morishita Station, there is a Korean sweets shop tucked away in a small alley. I tried two "Tungkalon" desserts. Both had a soft outer macaron shell and a smooth, creamy filling. They were quite sweet and filling. Pairing them with coffee could help balance out the sweetness. - Sweet Red Bean Butter: ¥380 Sweet and slightly salty, delicious! The cream is smooth and tasty, with red bean paste in the center. - Earl Grey Tea-infused: ¥380 The tea flavor is very nice. The cream is incredibly smooth. It's quite sweet but delicious.

I visited around 3 pm on a weekday. It's located next to a bicycle shop and close to the station. There were no other customers at the time, but they were already sold out of croissants. I purchased pistachio, anko butter, and chocolate navy macarons for around 380-400 yen each. They were neatly packaged in boxes inside plastic bags for takeout. When I got home, I tried them and they were delicious, not overly sweet. Although macarons are a bit pricey for the quantity, they make a nice treat for guests or as a gift. Since they are individually wrapped, they are also great for taking on a stroll in the city.

There is a macaron shop in Morishita, which is quite close to Kiyosumi-Shirakawa! I had the mint chocolate (probably around 400 yen) and it was delicious! It's great that you can eat in at this shop! The ganache was rich in white chocolate flavor and the mint was just right! The interior is all white with a mint-colored exterior, giving off a Korean cafe vibe!

I found a super cute Korean sweets specialty store called Tuncaron when I went to my hometown in Morishita, Koto-ku. The store is small and adorable, and the Tuncaron is also very cute. Not only cute, but also delicious! There is a cozy eat-in space too. Right now, it might be a hidden gem as more and more delicious restaurants are popping up from Kiyosumi Shirakawa to Morishita, and I am happy about it.
