▶️A popular shop with monthly changing pancakes.
▶️After receiving your order, they mix the flour, let it rest, and cook it on an American-made griddle.
So it takes a little while for the pancakes to be cooked.
▶️The pancakes are made with domestic buttermilk, no water, and only Hokkaido milk... They are made with a fluffy and chewy mixture to suit Japanese tastes.
▶️The cups and clips have the shop's logo on them💕💕
They were really cute.
When you finish your drink, there's an illustration of a pancake on the bottom of the cup, so you can enjoy it until the very end.
