A Polar Bear Landmark Cafe Offering Matcha and Shiratama Sweets
Located approximately a 10-minute walk from JR Asahikawa Station, "SHIROKUMATCHA" is a cafe marked by a polar bear on its awning. Strolling around Asahikawa Heiwadori Shopping Park with a takeaway treat such as a "Matcha Latte" made with domestic matcha and Hokkaido milk, or a "Shirokumamatcha Soft Serve Cream" sprinkled with matcha powder, is highly recommended. Inside the shop, sit on a bench and enjoy the fluffy, chewy "Issun Tofu Shiratama" along with freshly prepared domestic matcha. As you gaze at the round eyes of the polar bear painted behind the counter, the cozy atmosphere is sure to make you feel warmly at ease.
"Matcha Latte" Featuring Premium Matcha and Fresh Hokkaido Milk
The rich and deep-flavored "Matcha Latte," the shop's popular menu item is irresistible for matcha lovers. Desserts such as "Shirokumamatcha Soft Serve Cream," sprinkled with domestic matcha powder, and "Issun Tofu Shiratama," flavored with matcha and soybean flour, are also rich in flavor and beautifully presented.
A Cozy Interior "Watched Over by a Polar Bear"
The "Gift shiratama," made with "Issun Tofu Shiratama" from "Moiwayama Dango" in Sapporo and filled with plenty of black soybean flour from "Taniguchi Farm" in Higashiasahikawa, is also recommended as a gift. In the cozy shop watched over by a "polar bear," tea utensils and original goods featuring a "polar bear" motif are also available for purchase.
