Looking back
The SD Foodie take
Editorial commentary written from Roger’s original photograph and caption. Roger’s own words are the quoted photo note above.
A tall matcha parfait with green tea ice cream, shiratama mochi balls and a wafer; a plate of matcha ice cream with red beans and mochi; a bowl of whisked green tea; and a frame of the table.
The caption is three words and completely accurate. Nearly every element is green tea — ice cream, powder and drink — which is exactly the point of a Tokyo matcha café.
The quick critique
What stood out
- A matcha parfait with mochi
- Green tea ice cream with red beans
- Whisked matcha to drink
Bottom line
Archive verdict
A full commitment to matcha — green tea everything, just as the caption promised.
