A Flavorful Blend: Introducing 'Verde' at FORU Cafe
A delightful new addition to the dessert offerings at FORU Cafe in Harajuku, the 'Verde' is a matcha-infused panini that promises a unique dining experience. This delectable item will be available for a limited time in December, appealing to both locals and tourists alike.

The 'Verde' Panini: A Sweet Encounter
At FORU, the culinary philosophy revolves around delivering a touch of luxury and surprise to everyday life. The 'Verde' panini embodies this spirit, merging the rich flavors of traditional Japanese matcha with Italy's beloved panini format.
The decision to spotlight matcha was intentional, reflecting its growing popularity worldwide, especially among international visitors to Harajuku. This creative dessert panini combines the seasonal colors of green matcha and homemade strawberry jam, evoking the festive spirit of the Christmas season.
Pricing and Presentation
Priced at 1,480 yen (tax included), the 'Verde' is not merely a visual delight. The crispy toasted panini is generously coated with matcha syrup and topped with rich cream cheese cream, providing a perfect balance of flavors. To enhance your experience, it is served with a scoop of luscious matcha ice cream and vibrant strawberry jam—a sweet-tart concoction that perfectly compliments the deep bitterness of the matcha.
Perfect for the Season
The 'Verde' is designed to be a seasonal treat, available until the last business day of December. This limited-time offer is a perfect indulgence for anyone in search of a unique dessert experience during the holiday season.
