Exciting New Addition to Shibuya's Culinary Scene
On September 14, 2023, a delightful new bakery and café named 'TRASPARENTE la Chiara' officially opened its doors within the office building 'X-BASE SHIBUYA' in the heart of Shibuya. The venue is owned by Toyota Real Estate Co., Ltd., which has made significant strides in redefining modern workspace environments.
Located in the upscale Shoto area of Shibuya, 'X-BASE SHIBUYA' began its operations in January 2026, following a transformation of the former Denso Shibuya Building. As part of the development, this office building features a blend of half-set-up offices tailor-made for flexibility and small offices in various dimensions to cater to diverse tenant needs. Notably, it boasts a lounge area and terraces above the second floor that encourage tenant socialization and relaxation.
'RESTAURANTE TRASPARENTE' has garnered a reputation for its delicious bakery items, boasting 14 locations throughout the Tokyo, Kanagawa, and Shizuoka areas. The bakery has been recognized by the gourmet site Tabelog and is celebrated as one of the top hundred bakeries in Japan.
This latest outlet, 'TRASPARENTE la Chiara', promises to live up to the high standards set by its sister locations. Patrons can explore a wide selection of artisan breads, gourmet tarts, and exquisite café items. A highlight on the menu is a special focaccia sandwich featuring freshly sliced ham sourced from the Gotemba region, alongside an exclusive offering of 'ajillo' (garlic shrimp) to be enjoyed in-house.
For those looking to unwind in the evening, the café also plans to serve a variety of alcoholic beverages, making it an ideal destination for breakfast, lunch, and light evening snacks, catering to customers throughout the day.
The presence of 'TRASPARENTE la Chiara' is expected to elevate the overall experience for tenants as well as individuals working and residing nearby, fostering a sense of community and enhancing the charm of the local area.
