ジプソフィラ
Adjacent to Akita Station is a commercial facility called "Topico," where a limited-time sale of Hokkaido's Hakodate City "Fruit Sandwich Specialty Store, Rokutenhachi," is taking place from July 29 to August 15, 2021. Until the end of March 2021, the parking lot at Topico was free for 30 minutes, but starting from April 2021, you need to make a purchase of over 2000 yen to get free parking, which made me avoid going there. However, I had to go today for some urgent business. Since they close at 8 pm, I went there 30 minutes before closing time and found that many items in the deli and bento corner were 20% off, but not the items I wanted. The prices were quite high, but since it's only available until the 15th, I decided to buy the "Strawberry Banana Coffee Jelly with Coffee Cream for 594 yen" and the "Sakura Rare Cheese Azuki Sandwich for 594 yen." The fruit sandwiches here have a cute flower-shaped cut, making them visually appealing. They charged me an additional 10 yen for the bag, but I wanted to see the original bag, which turned out to be a transparent one, but still cute and stylish. Inside, there was a cooling pack and a 100 yen discount coupon for the next purchase. When I asked the salesperson if I could take photos, they kindly agreed, and even allowed me to post it on a food review website. The fruit sandwiches are very filling, and one would be enough for a small eater. However, I bought two and ended up eating both. If I had to recommend one for ease of eating, it would be the "Sakura Rare Cheese Azuki Sandwich." The rare cheese is delicious. I was initially drawn to the "Coffee Jelly," but if given the choice again, I would prefer the "Sakura Rare Cheese" for the same price. There are only 3 days left to buy in Akita City, so if you're interested, don't miss out.
