Ueno Gourmet｜Exotic Afternoon Tea, Russian Dessert Afternoon Tea

After strolling around Ueno Marui, this Russian restaurant is perfect for a casual chat. Matryoshka Maruishi specializes in Russian and European cuisine, exuding an exotic atmosphere. Its most appealing feature is its diverse dessert combinations, perfect for afternoon tea.

For those looking to try several desserts at once, the ✨Dessert Plate (JPY 1056) offers six desserts, each mini-sized to satisfy your craving.

My favorite is the rich caramel-flavored Caramel Casserole.
For a slightly tart option, try the Grain Cheese with Pine Nut Honey, which has a subtle nutty aroma.

The other desserts all have their own unique characteristics, perfect for those who enjoy trying new things.

🍎りんごブリヌイ (JPY 748)
The apple pancake crust is soft and chewy, complemented by the naturally tart apples and paired with fresh cream for a smoother texture.

✨Two Kinds of Serving (JPY 693)
This dish offers a mango mille-feuille and citrus jelly all at once.
The mille-feuille is soft and tender, while the cream is smooth and light with a hint of mango. The citrus jelly is sweet and sour, refreshing, and bursting with citrus aroma.
The combination of strong and light flavors makes it a pleasant experience.

Desserts can be paired with a drink (+JPY 484), and there are many options.
I ordered iced milk tea and black tea, and the milk tea had a subtle spice flavor.
Both drinks were not overly sweet and complemented the desserts perfectly. Matryoshka Maruishi (マトリョーシカ)
