Prettily made dessert, but looks and sounds better than it is. I tried the Straight Outta Japan -- matcha and black sesame swirl with wafer and mochi toppings and red bean filling.
The ice cream texture was surprisingly creamy, but the taste was relatively weak/bland. There are other places with better green tea and black sesame flavored ice cream, soft serve, or snow ice.
The taiyaki itself was could've been crispier on the outside; it was a bit on the cakey side for me.
Finally, I love red bean and was wondering the whole time where the red bean filling was. There's only a small spoonful at the very bottom for your very last bite, after all the ice cream is gone. I would've appreciated more red bean spread throughout the taiyaki.
Overall not bad, but does not live up to the hype.
