Savour sakura season alongside one of spring’s standout citrus fruits – the dekopon orange – with this elegant afternoon tea at the café inside Le Pristine Tokyo at Hotel Toranomon Hills. Curated by Michelin-starred chef Sergio Herman, the menu features a mix of seasonal sweet and savoury bites that capture the flavours of spring.
Highlights include two seasonal crostata: one inspired by cherry blossoms with sakura mousse, strawberry confit and pistachio, and another combining fresh dekopon with grapefruit and mascarpone. There are also sakura and matcha macarons, plus a dekopon Swiss roll with yuzu diplomat cream. On the savoury side, expect pizzette with Zuwai crab, oeuf mayonnaise, and mini brioche filled with mortadella and pistachio.
For something extra special, you can also opt for the seasonal ‘Sakurapolitan’ cocktail – a twist on the classic Cosmopolitan, blending cherry liqueur with huacatay-infused vodka for a subtle floral aroma and deep fruitiness.
