Muttis Kuchen — Restaurant in Tokyo

Muttis Kuchen is a beautiful cake shop offering German cake specialties such Baumtorte fondant, Penguin Kugulov, Linzer Torte, Walnut pie, but also bretzels, pound cakes, cookies, baked by Chef-Pâtissier and owner Ms. Hatsuki HONGO. The place is not easy to locate as it stands in a remote and small alley of the Chazawa-Dori. You must identify a small parking cone to the German flag colors and proceed to the end of the alley, the shop being located in a small individual house. Chef-Pâtissier HONGO has been trained some 10 years in Germany, in Dortmund and Munich, and got a German certification. There is a tiny place in the garden with a bench for eating-in but the shop is normally for take-out. I loved the rhubarb pie (Rhabarberkuchen) and the tree cake (Baumkuchen), but the shops offers many specialties, including the Stollen from 15 November...

三軒茶屋周辺でケーキ屋を探してると見つけたお店 ドイツ菓子専門らしい。気になるって事で。

見た事のないケーキやお菓子や出来立てケーキなどがズラッと並べられております。

美味しかった。

当店は1種類じゃなく、複数選んで食べた方が満足感、記憶にも残りそう。

次回は最低3種類は頼もう。

It’s tucked away in a quiet corner, giving it a cozy, hidden-gem feel. Inside, the shop is small but charming, with rows of unique cakes and pastries I’d never seen before, plus freshly made treats.

After much deliberation, I went for a classic choice: • Baumtorte – ¥400

It was delicious.

I feel like this is the kind of shop where choosing several items—not just one—will leave you more satisfied and with a stronger memory of the visit.

Next time, I’ll order at...

I liked the idea of a German bakery in my neighborhood, selling fresh goods out of one’s kitchen, but the taste of the baked goods is bland and actually quite awful. The owner may have learned her trade in Germany, but either the ingredients are off or she is not...
