Patisseeie Mont Plus is a must-try~ In addition to cakes, coffee, etc., this shop also offers baking classes~ It is a popular shop, it is recommended to come early, otherwise the popular items will be sold out.
Ordered strawberry mille-feuille + cream puff + grape tart + coffee☕️ I like the strawberry mille-feuille the most among the three. The mille-feuille is well made, not sweet and greasy overall, and delicious~ There are too many choices, a little dizzy, I will continue to come next time~
Don't miss the dessert shops here when you come to Kobe. There are many dessert shops with great taste and good looks... The customers of the two popular shops introduced here have been queuing up early every morning. The one above is a dessert with various pies as the main feature. The strawberry pie is very beautiful and the strawberries are very delicious. There is a layer of jam on the surface. It is a little too sweet, but it can be relieved with black tea. If you put a thick layer of cream underneath, it may be more delicious [snickering]... Dividing line... The shop below is opened on the side of a small road. I used Google Maps to find it early in the morning on the second day after arriving in Kobe. I couldn't find it for most of the day, and was led into the alley. Then I asked others and found that this is the back door [wipe sweat], ran to the door and saw the notice board that it was closed on Tuesday [awkward], so because the schedule was disrupted, I could only go on the last day. I bought three desserts, and the recommended No. 1 was the plain-looking cheesecake, but the taste was amazing. The cheese taste was super rich and smooth, and it really lived up to its reputation. The almond slice cake has a relatively light taste, and the texture is also very delicious. The crispy almond slices are crunchy in the mouth, and the bottom crust is also crispy and buttery. The one below is a caramel banana crepe cake, which has many layers of taste and tastes very delicious. The caramel on top is crispy, the cream in the middle is soft, the banana has a fruity flavor, and the bottom crust is crispy. I was specially told to let the cake lie down before I could cut it and eat it, but I still didn’t believe it, and it really didn’t work! [Awkward][Awkward]...I can only put it down...Every dessert shop has its own characteristics, and it really makes sense that good wine needs no bush! Baby likes the dessert at the back the most, and each one is full of surprises...In the end, I packed two coffee puffs...I moved to Kyoto...[Insidious]

The orange chocolate perfectly combines the refreshing taste of orange and slightly bitter chocolate, and the smooth mousse that melts in your mouth.
The special roll is composed of a fluffy roll crust and soft cream that melts in your mouth, with a fluffy texture.
For drinks, I ordered hot coffee and latte, which are perfect for dessert.
I often use this shop for birthday cakes for my children or as gifts. Not only cakes, but baked goods such as madeleines are also delicious.

It's not just plain bread, there are also a lot of breads with butter on them, breads with sweet sugar on them, and special curry breads.
I go there two or three times a month.
When it comes to bakeries in Kobe, this is the place to go.
I recommend their savory breads like curry bread and yakisoba bread.
The prices are reasonable too.

This is really one of the more authentic Chinese restaurants in the area. You should know that the owner of this restaurant is Chinese, and the dishes are really delicious. I have always eaten Japanese food, so it’s rare for me to eat Chinese food, and it’s really great.
It is said to be Chinese cuisine, but in fact I think it is similar to Japanese cuisine. The bamboo shoots in the ramen are very good, but the fried rice is just average. It is the same price as noodles, but the overall consumption is a little bit more expensive.

Lao Xiang Ji, the name of this restaurant is quite interesting. We came to eat at 1:30 pm, so there were not many people in the restaurant, only two tables. The dishes here look very good.
Kobe's Chinatown always makes people feel very familiar. It has all the delicious food and memories. In fact, the Japanese still have very complicated class feelings towards the people after the founding of New China. It is very complicated.

I've been going there since I was a child, and I think it's become even more popular in the past few years. Kobe has many famous Western restaurants, but Grill Ippei is one of those places where you have to queue up quite a bit.
The ketchup rice seasoned with a special sauce is wrapped in a thin egg, creating a satisfying visual. The taste is simple and familiar to everyone.
I didn't order it this time, but I recommend the beef cutlet and spaghetti Italian 😊
I always come here to check in when I visit Kobe. I love the taste of this place. But I have to wait a long time to eat it.
