Azuki to Kouri : le temple du kakigori à Tokyo

Fondé en 2023 par un chef étoilé Michelin, Azuki to Kouri est un restaurant unique situé dans le quartier de Yoyogi, à Tokyo. Ce lieu exclusif, accessible uniquement sur réservation, est réputé pour ses desserts japonais, notamment le kakigori, une glace pilée raffinée et légère. La renommée de l’établissement repose sur la qualité exceptionnelle de ses ingrédients, comme l’eau de source de Nikko, et sur l’expertise du chef qui a travaillé dans des restaurants étoilés, apportant une touche de sophistication à chaque création. La difficulté à obtenir une réservation ajoute à l’aura de ce lieu, qui séduit autant par son histoire que par ses desserts d’exception.


Azuki to Kouri se distingue par ses spécialités, notamment ses kakigori aux parfums variés tels que fraise, citron ou thé, souvent agrémentés de toppings originaux comme la crème brûlée ou les azuki rouges. Le menu change régulièrement, offrant ainsi une expérience gustative renouvelée à chaque visite. Outre ses desserts, le restaurant propose aussi un French toast, parfait pour un goûter gourmand. La qualité du service et la présentation soignée renforcent la réputation de cet établissement, considéré comme un incontournable pour les amateurs de desserts japonais et de glace artisanale.


L’ambiance minimaliste et élégante du lieu, avec ses lignes épurées et son décor sobre, crée une atmosphère intime et raffinée. La petite taille du comptoir oblige à réserver longtemps à l’avance, ce qui ajoute une dimension d’exclusivité à l’expérience. La décoration intérieure, sobre et moderne, met en valeur la finesse des créations du chef, permettant aux clients de se concentrer pleinement sur la dégustation. Azuki to Kouri incarne ainsi l’alliance parfaite entre tradition japonaise et innovation culinaire, dans un cadre où l’art du dessert est élevé au rang de véritable expérience sensorielle.

"Azuki To Kouri is notoriously hard to get a table, you pretty much have to book the minute the reservations get released because they sell out instantly! We set our alarm and patiently waited and managed to snag a mid afternoon booking 🙌🏼 They specialise in kakigori, which is a fluffy Japanese shaved ice 😍 We ordered: 🍧 Tea 🍧 Strawberry 🍧 Lemon First things first, the menu here is EXPENSIVE 😅 it’s $22-27AUD per dessert… but honestly these prices are justified! The service is meticulous, flavours are incredible and the whole experience is fantastic 🙌🏼 The shaved ice menu is constantly changing so there’s always something new to try out, plus they also do a men French toast too! We recommend ordering some tea as well, the preparation of the leaves and water is an experience in itself 😊"

"The clean-lined, slate-grey interior of this kakigori ice specialist sets off the ebullient shaved ice creations of pâtissier Miho Horio. Formerly of two-Michelin-starred restaurant Florilege, Horio is one of the young chefs elevating the sweet treat to new heights of refinement. She carefully adjusts the blade of her ice machine to shave blocks of ice—made with spring water from Nikko, north of Tokyo—into fluffy, feathery flakes. Shaping the shavings into a delicate mound, she adds fresh fruit and toppings such as homemade syrups, compotes, and foams. Her signature parfait showcases sweet azuki red beans—the classic kakigori topping for which the café is named—paired with cream and flecks of meringue. Seasonal offerings include salted cherry blossoms with fresh strawberries in spring, and blood orange dusted with grated Amazonian cacao in early summer"

The clean-lined, slate-grey interior of this kakigori ice specialist sets off the ebullient shaved ice creations of pâtissier Miho Horio. Formerly of two-Michelin-starred restaurant Florilege, Horio is one of the young chefs elevating the sweet treat to new heights of refinement. When she’s not behind the counter, she spends her time on the road sourcing pristine produce from around the country. What’s the crowd like? The seven seats at Azuki to Kouri are almost always occupied, so reservations (available via the website) are essential. Horio’s famous desserts and the café’s relaxed atmosphere draw a mixed crowd of kakigori aficionados, globe-trotting foodies, and folks from the neighborhood. What should we be drinking? The drinks menu features teas from Tea Farm Inokura in Nara Prefecture, including original blends made with seasonal fruits. Main event: the food. Give us the lowdown—especially what not to miss. Kakigori is the main event here. Horio carefully adjusts the blade of her ice machine to shave blocks of ice—made with spring water from Nikko, north of Tokyo—into fluffy, feathery flakes. Shaping the shavings into a delicate mound, she adds fresh fruit and toppings such as homemade syrups, compotes, and foams. Her signature parfait showcases sweet azuki red beans—the classic kakigori topping for which the café is named—paired with cream and flecks of meringue. Seasonal offerings include salted cherry blossoms with fresh strawberries in spring, and blood orange dusted with grated Amazonian cacao in early summer. Follow your shaved ice with Horio’s delectable French toast—a slice of brioche decadently fried in butter and served with azuki and espuma. And how did the front-of-house folks treat you? It’s a tiny operation, manned by one server along with Horio herself, who chats with guests across the counter like an affable sushi chef. What’s the real-real on why we’re coming here? Be sure to get there while the sun still shines: Azuki to Kouri closes at 5 p.m. on weekdays, and 7 p.m. on the weekends."
