Ikigai Kakigori Cafe - Quezon City

My partner has this endless craving for bingsu, so I recommended this place to her and bring along my friends. The place gives you a vibe of a hole in a wall cafe. Cute and very traditional Japanese peg. We ordered the strawberry and matcha flavor. Both tasted great but I still feel that bingsu dishes are overpriced. The service is good and the experience is okay. My partner and friends loved it since they are a fan of the dish. Me, i'm kuripot so I still think it's a little pricey ;)

I love all the desserts here (they are so good really, especilly japanese cheesecake shake) but the service was not good though. The place is kinda small but staffs(more than 3) were all talking and laughing so loud, we all were able to hear what they said and how they laughed. Hope they respect customers whenever they are chilling inside.

It was my first time to be here together with 3 of my friends . We ordered Matcha for sharing. It was a delight to taste this Japanese dessert. I just love their green tea ice cream , red monggo beans and mochi on top of the finely shaved ice! I love this Japanese dessert but compared to our native halo halo with lots of fancy toppings, this one is quite expensive. It was worth the experience though and the ambience was perfect for some private get together .

Was looking for something to munch on. And I found this! One of the most authentic Matcha Ice Cream I've had in Manila. I know it doesn't look much on a take away paper cup (since I had it for take out). But, it's absolutely worth the 75 bucks and the trip.

It was a hot summer afternoon that time that we decided to satisfy our cravings for Matcha when we decided to stop by Ikigai Kakigori. The place was somewhat small and not that visible but upon entering the place, you will feel the Japanese atmosphere in the air. To relieve the humidity, we chose to have their Matcha and Ichigo Kakigori. They have options for going solo or for sharing but given that I have this large appetite that time, me and my friend enjoyed sharing for each one of us!  Their Matcha had mochi partnered with red beans which complements the tea flavor which was not too sweet nor bland. They also have extra Matcha syrup so you have the option to increase the level of  Matchaness (If that is even a word to describe it lol.) On the other side, their Ichigo was a combination of vanilla ice cream and fresh strawberries. Which, is like heaven to berry lovers. Taking everything into account, the experience was something to go back to every time I will have the chance to do so.
