I had quite a long wait in Shibuya, so I took a break. It had been a while since I last visited Harbs, and I was excited to go back. When I arrived around 2 pm, there were already more than 10 groups in line, and the line kept growing as we moved forward. It was as popular as ever. It was too hot, so I wanted something refreshing. I chose the seasonal special cake, Grapefruit Mousse (850 yen), which was recommended to me. The Harbs-sized huge mousse had chunks of grapefruit in the gelatin layer. The transparent, shiny appearance looked cool and refreshing, and it was irresistible for fruit lovers. I was curious to see how it would taste with the cake underneath. When I tried it, the freshness of the fruit chunks and the sweetness of the moist cream blended perfectly. It was delicious. The Honey Lemon Tea Soda (1,000 yen) was made by pouring soda into honey-infused lemon tea. It was enough to make two full glasses, which was great. The drink was refreshing, and it didn't feel heavy. I enjoyed the perfect balance of refreshment while finishing it in no time. It was a luxurious afternoon filled with citrus flavors.

Every year, I always receive a melon cake from Herb's. This year, it started later than usual, from 6/22. I remember it usually starts at the end of May. This year, there was a price increase, now it's 1000 yen. It's a bit pricey at 1000 yen per slice, so it's not as easy to enjoy as before. The taste is good, with the whipped cream not too sweet and the melon being sweet and balanced.

Famous cake shop. There was a long line, so I got takeout. Ordered a slice of cheesecake and a milk crepe. The slice looked expensive but had a good portion size, so I think the price was fair. Cheesecake: Tasted like yogurt with a subtle cheese flavor. Texture was too light for my liking. Milk crepe: Had various fruits which was nice. Tasty, but not worth waiting in line for a long time. Thank you for the meal.

I went to Shibuya Hikarie and lined up at this place after a long time. I couldn't decide what to buy because everything looked delicious. I was torn between the milk crepe and the shortcake, but I ended up choosing the apple mango. It was surprisingly delicious. Although the prices are a bit high, everything I tried was amazing. I recommend the fruit cakes here. There were many people from Korea and China, probably because information about this place is spreading on social media.

I came to Shibuya to buy a cake after dinner on a weekday night. I wanted a cake with lots of fruits, but I couldn't find one easily. When I searched online, this place came up! It's the shop in Ikebukuro that always has long lines! I thought it wouldn't be crowded late at night, so we went. My girlfriend got a strawberry tart, and I got a strawberry chocolate cake. The butter sandwich looked delicious, so we got one. The cream wasn't too sweet, which was good, and the sponge of the chocolate cake had a sophisticated taste with alcohol. There's only one register, so it takes quite a while when take-out customers and those eating in overlap. It's a good place to go when you want a fruit cake.

I have a weakness for cream-based fruit cakes lately, so I've been buying cakes from Herb's more often. This time, I purchased one while I was in Shibuya for errands. Although the price is a bit high, the size is generous and I really like it. I particularly enjoy the chocolate banana tart, which is made mainly of bananas, custard cream, and whipped cream - it has become quite addictive. If you prefer cakes with a more substantial texture, you might want to try something else. I'll probably keep coming back until my current obsession fades.

I purchased strawberry mousse, chocolate mousse, banana cream pie, and strawberry tart from Herb's. Sometimes I just crave their cakes so much. They are a bit pricey at around 1,000 yen each, but where else can you find cakes this big? And they are so delicious that you never get tired of them! This time, I bought them as Christmas cakes. Herb's is a popular spot, even at night there is a long line. Some items were already sold out, but after waiting for about 20 minutes, I was able to purchase what I wanted.

Shibuya Hikarie 4F, located towards the back. They have a luxurious display window showcasing over 13 types of fresh cakes that express the deliciousness of the ingredients. They also offer original blend teas and coffees that go perfectly with the cakes. I usually go to the Ebisu branch, but this time, a friend and I visited this Shibuya Hikarie branch for the first time because the pasta order at the Ebisu branch often doesn't make it in time before 5 pm. As we were choosing our cakes and looking into the display window, we were surprised by a male staff member who strongly told us, "Please do not take photos," as there was a sign saying "No photography" above the window. I've never been told that at the Ebisu branch, so I wonder if something has changed recently. Most stores are cooperative in allowing photos for promotion, so the slightly intimidating attitude caught me off guard. I thought Harbs only had their confident cakes, but... [Order details] ★ Chicken and Mushroom Cream Pasta 1,600 yen A rich and creamy pasta with tenderly stewed chicken and various mushrooms. ★ Pescatore 1,600 yen A seafood pasta with shrimp, squid, and mussels in a luxurious tomato cream sauce.

Both pastas were delicious. The cakes were as tasty as ever, with delicious cream and a great collaboration with seasonal fruits. The female staff serving our table was very friendly and made us feel comfortable. The spacious and bright interior creates a cozy and stylish atmosphere. A lovely cafe in Shibuya, a city filled with Japanese trends. There were Chinese speakers on both sides, so it seems to attract many foreign customers. Couples were enjoying their cakes on dates, creating a perfect date atmosphere. Thank you for the meal.

There were few menu options for pregnant women. I visited on a Thursday afternoon and there were about 5-6 groups waiting in line. After a 15-minute wait, I was seated. I wanted to have some cake at the cafe, so I looked at the cake menu. They had seasonal flavors like chestnut and pumpkin, but most of them seemed to contain alcohol. When I asked the staff for options without alcohol, they said only the New York cheesecake was alcohol-free. As a pregnant woman, I had no choice but to go with that. I also ordered decaf coffee. I chose the pear tart, which was beautifully presented with a light cream. Even though I was full, I couldn't resist and finished it all! One thing that bothered me was the presentation at the herb level cafe. I thought if they paid more attention to how they served things on the table, it would make the place even nicer. The sugar packets, milk containers, and the handle of the herbal tea were all placed in a haphazard way, making it difficult to handle. Attention to detail would make this place even more wonderful. But everyone has their own preferences. If you don't mind these things, then this is a decent cafe. I rearranged the items on the table myself in the photo.

I visited around 6:30 PM in the evening. While other places in Harbs were crowded, this place was empty. I stayed for about an hour and as I was leaving around 7:30 PM, it started to get busy. I love Harbs' milk crepe, and even when I'm full, I can easily finish one. It's quite big, but since it's mostly fruits, I can enjoy it without feeling guilty. The crepe has bananas, kiwi, and two types of melon. The melon was incredibly delicious and sweet. I would be even happier if they had lattes on their coffee menu.

I ordered the "Lemon and Parmesan Cheese" pasta, along with a "Milk Crepe" and a "Blueberry Cheese Tart". The pasta came with a whole lemon quartered and served alongside, with a butter and cheese sauce that was light and refreshing with a hint of acidity and cheese flavor. It was really delicious, and I kept saying "delicious" with each bite. The HARBS cakes were my first time trying, and overall they were gently sweet and easy to eat. The "Milk Crepe" had a mix cream layer inside that was similar to custard cream, and it was filled with kiwi, banana, melon, and red grapefruit. The crepe itself was thin, similar to the skin of commercial crepe ice cream, with a chewy texture. The mix cream was gentle, but I felt it was a bit lacking in flavor. The "Blueberry Cheese Tart" had layers of cheese mousse that seemed rich, but it was actually light and not heavy at all. The blueberries on top were juicy and plentiful. The description mentioned "plenty of juicy blueberries", and it was true. It may be possible to take them home, but since they are made with soft cream, it might be a bit difficult to transport. I thought it would be best to refrigerate them quickly to prevent the cream from melting.

I visited the Harbs Shibuya Hikarie Cinq store on the 4th floor. It was nice to be able to enjoy the popular cakes from a local Nagoya shop here in Shibuya. I got a milk crepe to go. The milk crepe from Harbs is delicious no matter how many times I have it. I love it.

In Shibuya, it's nice to have cake and tea, right? So we went here. It was crowded, especially with Christmas Eve. We waited a while and finally got in. We had a milk crepe and a cheesecake, both were delicious. The prices are a bit high, but it's a nice place to relax and the fact that they serve tea in a pot is great.

It's always crowded, but I was able to enter around 2 pm on a weekday. They offer lunch sets, but not cake sets, so you have to order cakes individually. When you order coffee, you can get free refills, and you can even choose different types, including decaf. The cakes are generous in size and both visually appealing and delicious. This time, I tried the December limited edition White Chocolate Cake with almond and rum flavors, a combination of my favorites. The white chocolate on top is also cute. There is a restroom inside the shop. If you can secure a seat, it's a place where you can relax and enjoy your time.

I wanted to take a break on 7/21 and ended up coming to this cafe in Shibuya where I've been before. I waited in line because both the lunch and cakes are delicious and the location is great. I usually have coffee at cafes, but this time I tried the tea. The original blend seemed like the most reliable choice. For the cake, I chose the seasonal melon cake since I love melons. The tea arrived first and it was poured from a pot, which was a nice touch. The color and aroma were lovely, and it was very soothing. The melon cake was delicious, with a fresh and juicy flavor. The cream and sponge cake complemented the melon perfectly. There were melon fruit pieces inside the cake as well, which was very satisfying. I had a relaxing time and enjoyed myself.

Wife and Date① - Milk Crepe - Strawberry Tart The milk crepe was quite delicious with lots of fruits on top, making it look appealing. However, when eating it all at once, the flavors of different fruits mixed together, so I decided to eat them separately. The cream on the strawberry tart was light and fluffy, giving a sense of weightlessness as it slightly floated. #TokyoGourmet #ShibuyaGourmet #TokyoSweets #ShibuyaSweets #Herbs #StrawberryTart #MilkCrepe #ShibuyaHikarie #WifeandDate

At Harbs, I had a cake with chestnut tart, chocolate chips, and whipped cream wrapped in chestnut paste with a hint of rum. The whipped cream wasn't too heavy, so I was able to finish it. It was actually bigger than I expected. I should have gone with the milk crepe instead. #cake #fruitcake #cafe #snack #gourmet #Instagram #Instasweet #sweet #food #followme #follow #Harbs Shibuya Hikarie store #Harbs #sweettooth #spicyfoodlover #Shibuya #Tokyo

I finished my tasks for the day on 12/7, so I decided to have lunch at Hikarie. There is a restaurant floor at Hikarie, but I chose to go to a place a little further away that I often pass by. The place has the image of a cafe where you can enjoy cakes, but they also had a lunch menu. I chose a set which included pasta, salad, mini cake, and a drink. You could choose from 3 types of pasta and 3 types of cakes. The salad had a good variety of fresh vegetables with a nice crunch, which was a great start. For the pasta, I chose the one with chicken and mushrooms. The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the mushrooms were in a good variety of sizes with a nice volume. The portion of pasta was generous, allowing me to fully enjoy the delicious dish. The coffee had a slightly acidic taste, so I added some milk and finished it. For dessert, I chose the strawberry cream cake, which had a good balance of sponge, cream, and sweetness. The mini size of the cake made it a bit challenging to eat, but it was delicious. It was my first time trying this place, and I was satisfied with the food and dessert. I might come back again. Thank you for the meal! m(*_ _)m

I went there because I was craving the bacon and spinach pasta and cake. I always order the "Bacon and Spinach Pasta" lunch set, which comes with salad, pasta, cake, and coffee for 1700 yen. It's a bit more expensive now, it used to be 1500 yen last year. The pasta has big chunks of bacon and tomato, and the combination with spinach is great! For a cafe, this pasta is really delicious and I like it. I must have eaten it about 20 times by now. The cake options vary depending on the day. Today, it was either banana cream pie or chestnut tart, so I ordered the chestnut tart. There's way more cream than tart crust, so I always end up leaving half of the cream. It would be nice if they changed the cake options more often, as it's usually just these two choices with the lunch set. But I like this cafe, so I'll keep going without getting tired of it!

The layers of fruits are beautiful. I always end up choosing the milk crepe after looking around, and even though it's quite big, I eat it with great speed. It's also difficult to eat neatly. I've decided that if I become rich, I'll ask, "Can I have one piece of everything here?"
