The evening parfait at Cafe Terrace Par was so amazing that I decided to try another branch of the same chain. This night parfait specialty store also had a long line as usual, but I was able to get in after waiting for about 20 minutes. The store was full inside. It was interesting to see that the types of parfaits varied depending on the branch. They had parfaits like Trio Flying Strawberry Daifuku, Yukiusagi, Shimaenaga Parfait, Ophelias, Shimaenaga Parfait with Mimosa which contained alcohol. The ingredients were plentiful, with delicate combinations and marriages that delighted the customers. The prices could go up to almost 3000 yen for a set, but it was worth it for the artfully crafted parfaits. The Shimaenaga Parfait had a visually appealing presentation with Shimaenaga bird motif. It contained alcohol. The caramelized banana was beautiful! It had soft serve ice cream from Yamakawa Farm, grissini, cocoa mousse, caramelized banana, rum raisin gelato, meringue, genoise, croquant, sub-zero raw chocolate, blood orange mousse, banana and rum raisin marinated, cocoa tea jelly, and at the bottom, there was a sweet bean paste ball. I was surprised by the boiled salted peanuts as a palate cleanser. The subtle saltiness and unique chewy texture were a great accent. The idea to include them was amazing. The Flying Strawberry Daifuku had white chocolate mochi with chocolate gelato, soft serve ice cream from Yamakawa Farm, fresh strawberries, chocolate, sweet potato chips, croquant, genoise, almond florentine, and at the bottom, there were burdock chips and cocoa nib meringue, cookie crumble, pistachio pudding, and caramel. The lower layer was like a showcase and was very cute. Everything was delicious and interesting, but perhaps the parfait from the previous visit happened to be exactly to my liking, so this time, I wasn't as impressed. However, in terms of beautifully balanced and surprising night cafe experience, this place also had a wonderful quality. Since the prices were quite high, I naturally expected high-quality items. Thank you for the meal!
