Saryosuisen is a Japanese cafe that offers authentic matcha sweets that use only the finest dark tea among the highest-ranked Uji matcha in Japan. 9/16 (Thursday) Tobu Department Store Ikebukuro Main Store will be newly opened. Please enjoy a relaxing time in the calm interior of Kyoto.
In addition to the carefully selected Uji matcha, the Japanese sweets of Saryo Midorizumi are made from pure ingredients such as genuine bracken starch, Wasanbon from Tokushima, and brown sugar from Okinawa.
A variety of enjoyable Japanese afternoon tea plates devised by a skilled pastry chef, “Suisen Halle no Hitosara”, and the Kyoto-style udon noodles supervised by Gion Matayoshi and Matayoshi Kazutomo, a two-Michelin-starred restaurant. We also have a new menu just for you.
One of the features of the Kyoto Saryo Suisen Ikebukuro Tobu store is a luxurious space that resembles a hotel tea room. We are particular about the texture of the lighting and sofa so that you can feel the “soft” atmosphere unique to Kyoto.

December sees the arrival of a number of Christmas breads. The Snowman with his cute smiling face is a sweet loaf with two different flavours: pudding cream and chocolate cream. It is a heartwarming treat with flavours that both children and adults can enjoy.
Also back this year is the popular Japanese Stollen, which was a big hit last year. This is a special cake that can only be tasted at Kimuraya, using Japanese-inspired ingredients such as persimmons, figs and koshi-an (sweet bean paste). Please take this opportunity to try Kimuraya’s limited edition Christmas bread.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
