[2025 Singapore Restaurant] Travel Guide for Tsujiri (Updated Jun)

#summervacay Roasty, creamy, and just the right amount of sweet — the houjicha parfait at Tsujiri Tanjong Pagar is a standout among their carefully crafted Japanese tea desserts. Tsujiri’s outlet here combines sleek minimalism with warm, natural elements like wood and soft lighting, creating a calm, inviting atmosphere that feels like a peaceful retreat from the city buzz. It’s the kind of place where you can linger over dessert or enjoy a quiet moment with a friend. While matcha is Tsujiri’s signature and star ingredient across many of their desserts and drinks, their houjicha range deserves equal praise. From the rich, roasted flavour of houjicha lattes to the creamy, layered houjicha parfaits, the variety caters to those who love a slightly smoky, earthy twist on traditional tea. The houjicha parfait we tried was a perfect balance of textures and tastes — smooth houjicha soft serve, chewy shiratama mochi, sweet azuki beans, light jelly cubes, and crunchy cornflakes all combined to create a layered dessert that’s both refreshing and comforting. The roasted tea’s mellow smokiness pairs beautifully with the creamy ice cream, while the toppings add bursts of sweetness and texture. Aside from parfaits, Tsujiri also offers matcha and houjicha soft serve cones, shaved ice desserts, and classic matcha lattes, as well as seasonal specials that rotate to keep things fresh. Whether you prefer your tea as a simple drink or an indulgent dessert, Tsujiri’s menu is thoughtfully curated to satisfy a wide range of tastes. Overall, Tsujiri at Tanjong Pagar strikes a lovely balance between elegant presentation, authentic Japanese tea flavours, and a relaxed vibe. It’s a great spot to slow down, enjoy quality ingredients, and savour desserts that are both refined and comforting.

#favouriteitinerary Tsujiri's afternoon tea at their Tanjong Pagar outlet is a serene haven for matcha aficionados. The strawberry matcha daifuku is a perfect blend of vibrant, juicy strawberry, velvety red bean paste, and chewy mochi, all enveloped in the delicate bitterness of matcha, creating a harmonious and satisfying treat. The matcha gelato is equally impressive, offering a spectrum of flavors that range from a gentle, creamy sweetness to a deep, robust matcha richness. Paired with the smoky notes of houjicha jelly, the pillowy softness of mini shiratama dango, and the subtle sweetness of red bean, the dessert becomes a delightful exploration of textures and tastes. Tsujiri’s commitment to quality is reflected in the premium matcha sourced from Uji, Japan—renowned for its exceptional green tea leaves. This carefully curated selection, combined with the tranquil atmosphere of the café, allows you to fully immerse in the depth and complexity of matcha, making it a truly understated yet remarkable experience. #singaporetrip #citydaytours #afternoonteatime #localfood #thingstodo
