Known as the city’s first Taiyaki bar, the cafe serves some of the best Taiyakis. Despite its fish-like appearance, Taiyaki contains no seafood, and that’s what makes it special. The iconic dessert was invented in Tokyo in the early 1900s and is traditionally made using a pancake-like batter cooked in a fish mould. It is most usually filled with anko, a sweet red bean sauce made from azuki beans. At Bungeo, guests can try classic flavours such as Red Bean, Custard, and Nutella. The freshly baked waffles are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, making them an ideal pick for a short dessert break.
