I've always wanted to try the parfait from Girasole ( ).
The weather was nice, so we had them on the terrace. ☀️ There are 5 kinds of parfait.
All of them are very attractive.
I had a hard time deciding which one to get, but I decided on the caramel nut parfait 🥜.
The price for both parfaits is 1180 yen (tax included).
Both parfaits were priced at 1180 yen, which is a good price, but the parfaits were well worth it!
The caramel parfait includes, from the bottom, caramel sauce, cookies, orange slices, vanilla ice cream, caramel ice cream, caramelized mixed nuts, whipped cream and biscotti.
It is packed to the bottom.
And there is no corn flakes or any other added weight!
The caramel sauce is small and bitter, and the cookies are small and salty, kind of like Okinawan chinsuko.
Lots of caramelized nuts, too!
Caramel ice cream with Oreos.
Biscotti little pieces, with a nice crunchy texture. 🙆♀️
The biscotti is not too sweet, so it's even better with ice cream 👍!
Kame's chocolaberry also looked delicious 🤤🤤 Girasole's parfait was so good💕.
I want to conquer them all! LOL!
Well, this day was really fun 💓!
I had a lot of fun talking with Kame-san and eating delicious food.
And Kame-san is always so cute and so relaxing (*´˘`*)♡ lol
Next time let's try Coop's bread lunch again 😂💪💕 lol
Although we came from outside the prefecture, the salad dressing and soup were delicious. The main dish was the fist-sized hamburger for my husband, I had the eggplant gratin, and we shared a half set of the hamburger. Our daughter had steak and a whimsical half set, and we shared a pizza. Everything was delicious, and we were all full. When we come to Matsuyama again, we definitely want to visit this restaurant. Next time, I will have the fist-sized hamburger!
