Matcha Haul in Nishiki Market (錦市场 Nishiki Ichiba)

没吃到，但看起来很赞。当时就是一直想吃雪糕罢了。哈哈

抹茶水羊羹 (jelly coated with matcha powder)

最浓郁的抹茶雪糕

 

 抹茶蛋糕包红豆馅 (matcha cake with red bean paste)

Gion 祇園 

抹茶黑豆洋菓子 (black bean matcha pound cake) 

Matcha fondue (star item)

京洋菓子司ジュヴァンセル(Jouvencelle)

Address: Kyoto-shi Higashiyama-ku, Yasakatoriimae Minami-iru, Kiyoi-cho 482 Kyoban Bldg 2F
(京都市東山区八坂鳥居前南入清井町482 京ばんビル2F)

*從八坂神社的南門走出來，步行約五分鐘左右*

    宇治抹茶配和菓子 （uji matcha with local sweet)

Matcha Ice Cream again .....  ^^ ......

Matcha Cream Biscuit  抹茶夹心饼干

Manneken Belgian Waffle / Daifuku 豆大福  (both from Lawson) 

包装没那么好吃。Manneken有很多分行都在火车站里，新鲜出炉的可能会比较佳？

Asashi 玄米宇治抹茶夹心饼干是我的最爱，不甜，抹茶味又浓，重点是很便宜，100¥ 罢了。

Verdict: 

1)spend more money for better quality matcha food and drinks. Do not buy any from Convinient store, especially matcha drinks. Keep that for souvenir instead. 

2)there are lots of matcha store in Japan. For my recommemdation, I will choose 茶和々and 都路里. 

3)how to buy the best matcha ice cream? Watch it's color, choose the most greenest.
