Welcome to FRUITS ŌNO
On April 27, a fresh concept in fruit retail will be unveiled in Hiroo, Tokyo:
FRUITS ŌNO, a vibrant fruit shop opened by
Junpei Ohno, the innovative mind behind the renowned fruit daifuku shop
Benzaiten. Building on his successful foray in Yoyogi Uehara, Ohno's latest venture promises to be a unique experience for fruit enthusiasts and dessert lovers alike.
Prime Location
Located in the charming district of Hiroo and close to the bustling Tengenji intersection, FRUITS ŌNO occupies a spot on Meiji Dori. It's impossible to miss, thanks to its distinctive round tent decorated with a colorful assortment of fruits. This thematic ambiance invites passersby to step inside and discover a world where fruits take center stage.
A Celebration of Japanese Fruits
Junpei Ohno has traveled the globe and recognized that the secret to the irresistible taste of Japanese fruits lies in the country's topographical uniqueness. With around 70% of Japan covered by mountains and blessed with pristine water, the fruits here are remarkably flavorful. At FRUITS ŌNO, seasonal treasures such as apples, grapes, strawberries, and melons await customers, all presented on a custom wagon inspired by the fresh produce markets of Paris.
Fresh Options
Customers can enjoy freshly cut fruit or sip on 100% fruit juices while exploring the shop. FRUITS ŌNO sets itself apart by not just selling fruits but curating an entire experience around them. Seasonal fruit parfaits and exclusive cocktails are a glimpse of the bar offerings available at night, welcoming guests into a hidden space that transforms after hours.
Sweets Crafted with Care
There's more to this vibrant store than just fresh produce. The signature
fruit chiffon cake, made with a delicate balance of flour and eggs, showcases the natural sweetness and vivid colors of fresh fruits, complemented by a smooth cream boasting a rich 27% fat content. The nostalgia of traditional Bavarois is skillfully reimagined to offer an indulgent yet light sweetness, harmonizing beautifully with the fruits.
Gift Options
Fruits symbolize happiness and are often given as gifts during celebrations. At FRUITS ŌNO, gifts range from seasonal fruits to homemade fruit jams, dried fruits, and custom birthday cakes. The packaging is minimal yet exudes a special touch, making them perfect for seasonal gifts like
ochugen and
oseibo.
A Stylish Bar Experience
Behind the scenes, FRUITS ŌNO features a secret bar that evolves from a fruit shop during the day into an exclusive invitation-only venue by night. Inspired by Stanley Kubrick's
