“When people think of Japanese food, they mostly think of sushi, rice, soba noodles. But Japanese breads, desserts, and street food are relatively unexplored in India. Japan excels at breads – their breads are unbelievably fluffy and soft, and the pastries are light, airy, and not too sweet. The street foods like karaage, takoyaki, taiyaki, and jiggly pancakes deserve a place in our culinary landscape. It was this desire to popularise Japan’s authentic specialties that made me bring Harajuku Tokyo Cafe to India,”shared Gaurav Kanwar, founder and director at Harajuku.
Harajuku Tokyo Cafe offers a whole range of gastronomical delights from Japan, including – the fluffy Japanese pancakes and cheesecakes, the world-famous Japanese breads; street food like takoyaki, chicken karaage & the twelve-inch-long Japanese fries; fun desserts like taiyaki (ice cream in a fish shaped cone!), & the popular Harajuku crepes; ramen, chahan, sushi, and a lot more!
