Experience the Blooming Cherry Blossoms at CONA's Hanami Event in 2026

As spring approaches, CONA, a beloved casual Italian bistro operated by INGS Co., Ltd., invites you to a unique cherry blossom viewing experience from March 1 to April 30, 2026. Located in the heart of Tokyo, CONA's event titled "Hanami Bar 2026" presents a breathtaking indoor setting filled with cherry blossoms, allowing patrons to enjoy the beauty of sakura without worrying about the weather or crowded parks.

A Feast for the Senses

This year’s theme focuses on the delightful pairing of strawberries and cherry blossoms, offering five vibrant seasonal creations. Guests can indulge in exquisite dishes set against the backdrop of full-bloom cherry trees, creating an enchanting spring atmosphere right in the city.

Among the highlights of the menu is the "Ham and Strawberry Mascarpone", where the sweetness of the season's strawberries harmonizes perfectly with rich mascarpone and aged ham. Each bite delivers a delightful balance of sweet, salty, and creamy flavors, beautifully complemented by a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and honey. This dish is an excellent way to kickstart your hanami experience.

Another standout on the menu is the "Strawberry and Marshmallow Dessert Pizza". Crafted with homemade Roman-style pizza dough, this masterpiece features a decadent custard base topped with luscious strawberries and melt-in-your-mouth marshmallows, baked to perfection. The crispy thin crust and gooey filling offer a wonderful contrast to the fresh strawberry acidity, creating a dessert that delights until the very last bite.

And for a visually stunning dessert, don’t miss the "Mascarpone Pudding with Amaou Strawberry Ice Cream", served in a traditional masu (square wooden cup). This delectable dessert combines a rich homemade mascarpone pudding with luxurious Amaou strawberry ice cream, presenting a delightful burst of flavors enhanced by a fruit-packed strawberry sauce.

Perfect Pairings

To complement the delectable dishes, CONA also features refreshing beverages. Guests can indulge in the beautiful "Sakura Sparkling", a cocktail combining sharp sparkling wine with cherry blossom liqueur, elegantly garnished with cherry flower petals floating on top. This drink embodies the essence of spring, making it a picturesque choice to enjoy while savoring the indoor sakura ambiance.

You can also try the "Salted Lemon Sour with Sakura", a colorful twist on the popular lemon sour, which features frozen lemons and cherry liqueur for a refreshing and vibrant drink.

However, at CONA, you can completely immerse yourself in the beauty of cherry blossoms while enjoying delicious food and drink without a care in the world.
