Cake Stand — Restaurant in Kobe

Superb! By far the best croissants in Kobe, far superior to anything I tried, and I dedicated the last two years in Kobe to find the best croissants. I am finally happy the search is over :)

I tried a single croissant , and went back literally 2 minutes after I took a bite , to buy many more croissants and other things to try at home with my family. Great financiers, especially the vanilla / almond one ! Also great apple pie , very well executed crust with a crunch, then soft inside and fantastic roasted walnuts on the edges reminding me of modernist cuisine pie recipes .

Overall based on my initial test, the place became an instant favorite . Will try again for sure !

One drawback : even though the cafe inside is really nice, one cannot enter with a stroller, so I couldn’t stay and enjoy a coffee with a pan au chocolat. Would be better if they could let parents with babies come as well.

One of our plates had black scratch marks from a knife. Also, the cake selection was not great, just about 4 or 5 choices, and one of those was a simple chou cream. Finally the chocolate Basque cheesecake tasted bitter and was disappointing. It tasted more of standard chocolate than a cheesecake. You can do better, so...

A trendy and creative cafe in Kobe's Kitano area. They have seasonal desserts. They specalise in crepes and tarts . Their season crepe set usually comes to 1500 yen. The cafe is pretty small though and has limited seating so you may have to expect a wait there . They also have some biscuits/cakes that you can order or buy to take out. Also the cafe can be a bit to hard , you need to spot the sign and...
