"Nantoka Presso" is a coffee and bread shop in Luz Jiyugaoka, Tokyo. It is a sister store of the bakery "Bread and Espresso".
The shop has a large lineup of unique drinks, including "time-out coffee" that is carefully dropped drop by drop. I drank 3 cups that I was interested in.
Glittering soda
"Gensou-like soda" is a seasonal soda made by adding fruit and fruit syrup jelly to carbonated water. You can add flavors for +30 yen. This time I chose the peach flavor. The price is 400 + 30 yen (tax included, same below).
Jelly and fruits that shine in transparent soda. The gradation of jelly dyed in bluish purple, deep green, and pale pink is fantastic. The color tone changes slightly depending on the angle of sunlight.
Peach flavor that pops with bubbles. The refreshing sweetness will moisturize your throat. It contains mandarin oranges, lemons, and cherries, and each taste is slightly blended into the refreshing taste.
The red of the cherries shines
The soft jelly can be sucked with a straw or scooped with a spoon. It tastes like a fruit punch and carries coolness with each bite.
Bottle coffee
"Special Royal Milk Coffee" that is fashionable in a bottle. You can choose from sweetened and unsweetened. The price is 400 yen.
It's very rich because it just calls itself "Royal Milk"! The mellow sweetness and richness rush in. Finally, the scent of coffee is fluffy. Perfect when you want to spoil yourself a little.
Immerse yourself in a rich mood
"Lemon coffee" is coffee made for "people who don't like coffee". There is a lemon inside. The price is 360 yen.
Take a sip ... is this really coffee? The refreshing taste without bitterness is like black tea. The sourness of the lemon leaves a refreshing aftertaste.
Even if you like coffee, it was delicious
Bread is also fulfilling
The shop sells not only drinks but also various breads. "Chocolate" is a cornet made from milk chocolate and espresso. The price is 260 yen.
The chocolate in the moist dough has a moist and smooth texture. After the richness of cacao, the deep flavor of espresso spreads slowly. I imagined the sweet taste of chocolate, but it has an adult taste with a modest sweetness.
With chocolate from end to end
"Anko Cream Cheese" is a cornet made by combining white chocolate with cream cheese and squeezing red bean paste. The price is 260 yen.
Moist and melty cream cheese and white chocolate. The elegant sweetness of the bean paste brings the whole together. The butter that scents softly from the dough is shiawase.
By the way, there is also a sister store "Bread, Espresso and Freestyle" on the 3rd floor of the same facility. You can enjoy freshly baked bread and French toast on an iron plate in the fashionable store, so be sure to check it out.
