This East Village spot turns aged Japanese sweet potatoes into balanced treats like custard-filled yams and parfaits.
Description
The Satsumaimo yams are grown in Kagoshima and undergo a 100-day aging process to develop their flavor. On the menu, this translates to warm options like honey butter sweet potato or a crème brûlée baked sweet potato. Cold desserts focus on texture contrasts, layering purple sweet potato paste with milky vanilla ice cream, soft cake, and crunchy cornflakes. While the desserts are appreciated for not being overly sugary, some visitors note that the portions are small and prices run high.
