Hibiya Cafe LEXUS MEETS... Serves Shugetsudo-Supervised Banana Kakigori and Kuzukiri This Summer

LEXUS MEETS... (レクサスミーツ), a cafe lounge on the 1st floor of Tokyo Midtown Hibiya where guests can enjoy Japanese-style sweets and the appeal of regions across Japan, is serving a Shugetsudo-supervised banana kakigori and a kuzukiri for a limited time starting Saturday, August 1.

Banana Kakigori Supervised by Shugetsudo

The kakigori is supervised by Shugetsudo, a confectionery shop long loved in Gamagori, Aichi Prefecture, and is one of the signature menu items at LEXUS MEETS.... It's known for its finely shaved, delicately melting ice paired with a carefully made syrup that lets the character of the ingredients shine through. This summer, a season-only kakigori built around fully ripened banana joins the lineup, offered for just 10 servings a day. The bananas are ripened until their aroma and sweetness peak, giving the dessert a rich fruit flavor balanced against the light, airy texture of the ice for a taste suited to the season. Each bite brings out the full flavor of the ripe banana together with the delicate shaved ice.

Kuzukiri

Kuzukiri at LEXUS MEETS... in Tokyo Midtown Hibiya

Also joining the lineup for a limited time is a kuzukiri made only with genuine kudzu starch and no additives. It's notable for its high transparency, smooth texture, pleasant chewiness, and clean finish. A kuromitsu made with brown sugar from Hateruma Island gives the dish a deep, refined sweetness that brings out the kuzukiri's own flavor. Guests can enjoy the delicate taste of the ingredients on their own or paired with kinako (roasted soybean flour), to taste.
