Delight in the Premium Seasonal Parfait at Hotel Metropolitan

This February, Hotel Metropolitan in Ikebukuro is proud to present a delectable treat for dessert enthusiasts and food connoisseurs alike. From February 1 to February 28, 2026, the Mezzanine Lounge 'Suzukake' will serve the delightful 'Premium Seasonal Parfait,' featuring the exquisite Amarin strawberries, a variety recognized for its remarkable sweetness and gorgeous red hue.

What Makes the Amarin Strawberry Special?

Cultivated in Saitama Prefecture, Amarin strawberries are a high-end variety that has captured the hearts of many with their rich flavor profile and eye-catching appearance. This variety has achieved wide acclaim, winning the highest gold medal at the National Strawberry Championships for three consecutive years. It is this distinctive flavor, with a perfect balance of sweetness, that forms the heart of the Premium Seasonal Parfait.

A Symphony of Flavors and Textures

The Premium Seasonal Parfait is not just about the strawberries; it artfully combines various types of chocolates, including sweet, bitter, and ruby varieties, to create a harmonious duet of flavors. Each parfait is layered with refreshing fruity jellies made from precious cacao pulp, which is extracted in tiny amounts from cocoa pods, ensuring a unique taste experience. Additionally, a layer of currant confiture provides a delightful tang that perfectly complements the sweetness of the Amarin strawberries.

The indulgent pairing of two different sauces — vanilla and raspberry — allows guests to tailor their dessert experience, drizzling the sauces as desired for a personalized touch. Every scoop offers a new and vibrant texture that engages all the senses, making this parfait not only a treat for the taste buds but also a visual feast.

The Perfect Setting

As you savor this luxurious dessert, the ambiance of the Mezzanine Lounge 'Suzukake' enhances the experience, thanks to its airy design and relaxing atmosphere. While the lounge does not accept reservations, guests are welcome to indulge in this seasonal delight from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (last order at 5:30 p.m.) daily throughout February.

The Premium Seasonal Parfait is priced at ¥2,500, and for those wanting to elevate the experience, a set with a drink is available for ¥3,500, which includes either coffee or tea.
