Akai Strawberry Daifuku Shop: A Fresh Start in Meguro
The beloved "Akai" strawberry daifuku and tea sweets shop, operated by Sisty Inc., is excited to announce its relocation and grand reopening in Tokyo's Meguro district. Situated just a three-minute walk from Gakugei-Daigaku Station, this new location not only enhances the shop's ambience but also promotes creativity and productivity in their confections.
Akai is renowned for its delectable strawberry daifuku, a traditional Japanese confection that encapsulates a juicy strawberry within mochi. The shop continuously innovates its offerings, ensuring the variety of strawberries used in its daifuku adapts with the seasons. The reopening will also feature an expanded selection of wagashi (Japanese sweets) and an assortment of seasonal treats, including the highly sought-after black fig daifuku made with bio-lemon figs sourced from Sado Island, Niigata Prefecture.
The new address for Akai is 3-5-6 Takaban, Meguro, Tokyo, located on the first floor of the CUARTO-M building. As part of the reopening celebrations, various daifuku variants and fresh confections will be available to satisfy both regular customers and newcomers alike. The shop is set to open its doors on Saturday, September 20, at 10 AM.
New Hours of Operation
With the move, Akai's hours will now be:
- - Open: Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM
- - Closed: Mondays (Open on holidays with the following day off)
During the first three days after the reopening, the shop will be unable to handle phone inquiries. Customers can reach out starting September 24 at +81-3-5724-3182 for any questions.
In addition to their signature strawberry daifuku, Akai will also be offering whole cakes and various fresh sweets. The expanded menu aims to cater to a wider audience, ensuring that everyone can find something special to enjoy.
