I went to KITAHAMA GOKAN SALON for the first time. It was on a weekday but it was very crowded that we had to wait for one hour. Their French Toast was very delicious with moderate sweetness. I will go try their cakes next time.
北浜五感。美しい。

KITAHAMA area, where "GOKAN - KITAHAMA HONKAN." is located, is an area with styish, high class atomosphere.
On weekdays, the area is busy with people who work at the offices close by, and on weekends, it is rather quiet with less population.
The building of "GOKAN" sits perfectly in such sophisticated area with a classical atomosphere. Every sweet sold at the shop is very delicious with their carefully selected ingredients. The texture, taste, and flavor, everything is just outstanding. Also, they pay attention to how beautiful their sweets "look." It is a very difficult decision to make which cake to purchase. There are many customers that cannot decide for a long time.
We are convinced that there are many repeating customers.
Also, it is also a supreme happiness to spend time at the KITAHAMA HONKAN SAON enjoying their delicious cakes. We recommend that you go on weekdays for it is often very crowded on weekends.
There are no shops outside of Kansai area that it would surely be appreciated if you take their sweets home as souveniers.
Their sweets are also available at stations and airports, please check them out.
