The Craft Behind Tabane no Shi

Tabane no Shi takes pride in its exceptional use of Kakegawa matcha, celebrated for its perfect balance of bitterness and depth. The matcha used comes from award-winning tea gardens recognized nationwide, and through a unique blending method, the rich flavors of matcha shine through in each dish.

One standout feature of Tabane no Shi is its water-wrapping technique, symbolized by beautifully crafted mizuhiki (Japanese decorative cord). This decorative element not only enhances the visual appeal of the crepes but also serves a functional purpose as a bookmark or home décor piece, adding a touch of elegance to everyday life even after the crepe is enjoyed.

Blending Tradition with Modernity

Established in Asakusa in 2022, Tabane no Shi has expanded to several cities across Japan, including Tokyo, Kanagawa, Chiba, Kyoto, Osaka, Hyogo, Shimane, Fukuoka, and Kagoshima. The brand embodies the spirit of Japan by reinterpreting traditional materials and methods through a modern lens. Named after the bundled ribbons of joy, which symbolize the bonds between people, Tabane no Shi embraces the values of connections and shared happiness.
