I visited in the early afternoon on a regular day. The seats were moderately filled with customers, mostly women. You order after taking a seat. I ordered a shaved ice with mango and grapefruit. It was quite voluminous and had plenty of mango in it. Next time, I would like to try ordering the one with a bear on top!

I wanted to try the Sleeping Bear shaved ice, but it was sold out! So, I went with the matcha flavor instead. The ice was fluffy with a hint of milk flavor, topped with red bean mochi, and condensed milk on the side for you to add as much as you like. I felt like the portion was a bit too much, so maybe offering a smaller size for a lower price would be nice. The shop was crowded due to the heat, but it had a cute Korean cafe-style interior!

I don't usually eat sweet things, but I chose a shop called Pessoru for a break during my exploration of Tsuruhashi. I had their shaved ice with lots of Oreos on top, which had a crispy texture and a delicate fluffy feel. It was a new sensation of shaved ice. It was moderately sweet even without condensed milk, but adding condensed milk made the sweetness spread all at once. Recharging with sugar, I felt refreshed from the exploration fatigue. Also, the macaron was small but super cute with eyes on it. I enjoyed the visually appealing shaved ice.

When I visited a cafe in Tsuruhashi, it was around 11 o'clock so it was not crowded. It was a hot summer day, and I walked to Koreatown, feeling hot, so I had some shaved ice before lunch. It was mango and grapefruit flavor with plenty of mango, and it was delicious. The cafe was clean and the seating arrangement was spacious, with Kpop music videos playing on the monitors. Since it's Osaka, there were a lot of NCT songs playing. I was able to relax and cool down slowly.

Located about a 10-minute walk from Tsuruhashi Station and a 12-minute walk from JR Momodani Station, this Instagrammable sweets shop offers unique shaved ice called Pessol, cream-filled macarons, and Tuncaron. I chose Tuncaron and Mini Tuncaron with a side of café au lait. The desserts were so cute that I hesitated to eat them. Thank you for the delicious treats.

I went to Tuncalonteikau to get takeout. They said they had big macarons, so I was expecting something quite large, but it was actually palm-sized. The taste was good, but considering the price, I think it's something you try once. However, it would make a nice gift.

I visited a restaurant to try the shaved ice that my favorite idol was eating. I arrived at 11:00 on a Sunday afternoon, but the shutter was down. I was worried that they might be closed, but then I saw that they actually opened at 11:30. Even though Koreatown was crowded, I was prepared to wait in line. However, there was only one group ahead of me, and a few others were already seated inside. My favorite idol was eating the strawberry and red bean shaved ice, but since the strawberry was a limited-time flavor, I tried the red bean shaved ice instead. It was made of fluffy milk ice that wasn't too icy, and you could drizzle condensed milk on top yourself. The best part was the sliced almonds - they were so crispy and added a great accent to the dessert. It was delicious!

I'm a cafe-loving OL in my 20s! Thank you for coming to see my post!!⁡⁡The cafe is located in Osaka's Koreatown, and it's the only place where you can sit and eat✨It's so nice to have a cafe with chairs when you're tired from walking and eating around!!⁡⁡※I went with my friends on this day, but it might be a little intimidating to go alone!! I recommend going with two or more people!!⁡⁡On weekends, there are times when there are long lines!! But the turnover is surprisingly fast, so the wait time might not be that long⁡⁡They also have limited edition desserts with bears on them, so make sure to check them out!! They're super cute!!!⁡

Since becoming a fan of BTS, I have been wanting to visit the top 3 places. One of them is Ikuno Koreatown, which is located about a 15-minute walk from Tsuruhashi Station. It's hot, so I enjoy walking through the arcade street on the way there. On a day like this, I feel like having shaved ice. I want to try something that can only be found in this town. "Sleeping Bear Shaved Ice" with vanilla ice cream on top sounds fun! You have to pay in advance and line up at the register. While waiting, I decide what to order. There are only 10 servings of the Sleeping Bear available per day, and you can choose between chocolate and soybean flour. I chose soybean flour, which is popular in Korea. The vanilla ice cream bear looks so comfortable sleeping on the ice. The soybean flour shaved ice is not too sweet, so I pour condensed milk over it. But the bear is sweet! It's made with a new popular ice powder snow texture in Korea, using fine milk-based ice. It melts instantly in your mouth, with a fluffy texture that tastes delicious. The bear was amusing, but next time I might try the soybean flour shaved ice without the bear. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

After lunch, I found a cute bear-shaped dessert shop while walking. There was a line from the entrance to halfway up the stairs, but I was able to enter without much wait. I asked first, "Do you have 10 bear-shaped desserts left for the 6th group?" before lining up. The bear-shaped dessert didn't melt at all when I took a photo, it remained cute. It was firm with a rich condensed milk taste. The ice was fluffy, and it remained delicious until the end. The store was spacious, and you couldn't see the people waiting outside, so you could relax. It was self-service, but the tables were properly cleaned by the staff after customers left, which was reassuring. I think it's a place where I would be happy to come back with friends.

I visited Pojagi, a place I've been curious about for a while. About 10 minutes before opening, there were already a few customers lined up outside, showing that it's quite popular. The system was to reserve a seat first and then go to the counter to place an order, with self-service for water and cutlery. I ordered the limited 10 servings per day Pesol and Chocolate Croffle. The Croffle takes some time to bake, so I started with the Pesol. After ordering the Pesol, I found self-service condensed milk at the water station and poured it over. I was worried the bear might melt and get messy, but it surprisingly stayed solid and cold until the end, with a nice vanilla ice cream flavor. The awaited Croffle was served hot and crispy, which made it very delicious.

Strolling through Koreatown♪ It's so hot without any arcades... I want some shaved ice~ Heading to the cafe on the second floor of Tokuyama Shokudo. I wonder if they still have the limited edition bear shaved ice? The place is packed with people enjoying shaved ice. After a 10-minute wait, finally got a seat. Do you still have the sleeping bear with kinako and azuki beans? Yes, they do! Yay! So cute~ The visual is adorable and the taste is amazing! The shaved ice is fluffy like snow, with a hint of milk flavor. Not too sweet, so you can enjoy it quickly. Served with condensed milk on the side. The combination of kinako, milk ice, and azuki beans is heavenly! The bear ice is firm and has a nice milk flavor. I could eat a bucketful of this shaved ice! Found a cute and delicious shaved ice here♪ Koreatown~

I went to try the fluffy Korean shaved ice in Tsuruhashi food tour part 2♪ It's a popular shop with mostly female customers, and there was a line of several groups waiting when I left. The shaved ice had cocoa powder, crushed Oreos, whipped cream, and ice cream on top, giving it a satisfying texture. The ice was finely shaved, so it didn't give me a headache haha. You can self-serve condensed milk, which added a nice milky flavor. Thank you for the delicious meal♡

I stopped by after leaving the hospital to do some shopping in Koreatown and decided to eat at Tungkolon because I was craving it. Luckily, there was an empty seat available so I decided to dine in. When I ordered a drink with my meal, it became a set price. I chose the macaron because I like this biscuit, but the other options were also cute.

A cafe located near the entrance of Ikuno Koreatown. The first floor is a Korean restaurant, and there are stairs next to the building leading to the second floor where the cafe is located. The interior of the cafe is colorful and has a typical Korean vibe. You start by placing your order and paying at the counter. There are various sweets and drinks displayed in a glass case, and I ordered a cafe latte and a cheese tart. They give you a bell to notify you when your order is ready. When the bell rings, you go to pick up your order, but there was no explanation on where to find utensils, milk, or sugar, so I got a bit lost. The taste of the items was average, nothing outstanding. The cafe started to fill up quickly, indicating its popularity. Despite being a popular spot, it was surprisingly relaxing. As there are limited options for places to sit and relax in Koreatown, this cafe seems to be a popular choice. I would like to try their sweets next time. Thank you for the meal! ✨

Continuing the exploration of the Korean town in Osaka, from Tsuruhashi to Momodani, there is a particularly eye-catching and cute café. Located below Totteyama Shokudo, after enjoying authentic Korean cuisine, you can indulge in a gorgeous and adorable dessert course here. The interior is filled with K-POP music, making it a spot that fans will love. They offer cute macarons like the matcha chocolate "Pessol" that I tried, which was beautifully presented like a mountain or a garden. The name "Pessol" means "white snow," giving the image of snow lingering on green mountains. The ice is made from milk, but it's finely shaved and white, with a texture that's not quite like milk but still enjoyable. The ice cream is rich and the chocolate is aromatic. Overall, the service is generous and everything is well-crafted.

I had some free time in the afternoon on 2/19, so I decided to visit "Koreatown" during my lunch break. The shop is located on the second floor of a building called "K-east," and there is a Korean restaurant on the first floor that seems to be part of the same chain. The interior of the shop is bright with a lot of glass windows letting in natural light. It seems like the place was recently renovated, and maybe due to infection prevention measures, the number of seats has been reduced. They have self-service water, cutlery, and for some reason, a ceramic sake barrel-shaped condensed milk dispenser that doesn't quite match the atmosphere of the shop. I ordered the strawberry shaved ice for 1100 yen including tax. It was topped with rice cakes and had plenty of strawberries, making it look beautiful. The ice seemed to be made with milk, resulting in a fine texture. Since I have a sweet tooth, I poured plenty of condensed milk over it. Delicious! It may seem surreal for a middle-aged man to have shaved ice in such a stylish space during this season, but I had always wanted to try it, so my wish finally came true. Thank you for the meal.

Powder snow-like shaved ice from Pessol in Korea. I tried it with grape flavor for ¥980, but... I'm sorry, it didn't suit my taste. It's hard to describe. It felt unsatisfying. The vanilla ice cream, milk, and grape toppings are self-service. I tried adding them, but... it was just okay. It didn't give me a brain freeze because the ice wasn't that cold. They said they will start serving pancakes in October. I remember they had a cheesecake similar to Rikuro Ojisan's.

The dish I enjoyed this time was the Grape Pesso. It's nice that you can eat the skin too. The grapes weren't very sweet, but they tasted delicious when eaten with ice cream and whipped cream. There were surprisingly a lot of grapes in it, which was really pleasing. Pojagi is a must-visit place for their unique ice cream with a fluffy and smooth texture like white powdery snow, filled with fresh fruits. They also sell incredibly fluffy pancakes topped with lots of fruits. The Grape Pesso I had this time was delicious and cold. Thank you for the meal.

At #Forgotten items in Ikuno Koreatown #Sweets Cafe Pojagi. The reason I came to Pessol Koreatown was to eat shaved ice. Popular shops in Osaka were too crowded, so I searched on Tabelog and ended up here. I tried the Kinako Pessol and Berry Yogurt Pessol. The Berry Yogurt one was tastier! But for Instagram-worthy, I prefer this one personally. Surrounded by young girls, this old man enjoyed his meal. It really felt like being in Seoul or Myeongdong. Makes me want to visit Korea again~ Thank you for the meal!
