Their coffee drinks are strong enough to wake up Snorlax! The cost is relative to its location, so be mindful that the South Bay and the peninsula may have more economic and competitive pricing.

I've seen Kamurocho all over my feed and stopped by for a morning latte before running errands. We…read morehad to do a double take before walking in to ensure we were even at the right place, even though it's in a well known strip mall between a Denny's and Nations. So they could definitely can do a better job of decorating the interior to really look like a cafe instead of a vacant room. We tried their matcha roasted rice latte and Hojicha latte, both sweetened. The hojicha latte was AMAZING! 10/10, no notes. It reminded us of the hojicha we had in Japan. The matcha roasted rice was unfortunately way, way too sweet to tolerate and little matcha flavor and green color. I would be open to ordering this again with extra matcha and little to no sweetener. This would be a 5 star review if the ambiance was nicer and matcha wasn't so weak and sweet. I would definitely be interested in coming back and giving Kamurocho's matcha another try and exploring their other drinks.

Somisomi in Pleasanton!…read more I LOVE Somisomi and this was the closest one to us (being 20 minutes away) so we had to stop by for a sweet treat. You know it's serious when you are willing to take a 20 min drive over just for ice cream but it was well worth it. There was a ton of parking spaces at the parking lot in the plaza that this biz was located in. The space was bright and clean, and the staff was super helpful. We love how they rotate their flavors. We got the soft serve in the cup and with the taiyaki. They are all about the banana flavor right now so we got the soft serve mix with that and the cookies and cream. It was really good! Can't wait to come to somisomi again the next time we're in town.

I organized a school fundraiser with them last year, and it went very well, so I really appreciate their support for local schools and communities. It's a franchise brand, and the location is more of a quick-stop setup with a small standing area rather than a place to sit and enjoy your ice cream. Overall, a fun spot with lots of flavors to choose from and a great option for school or community fundraisers.

After a magnificent dinner in the area a hand in hand walk in downtown Americana Pleasanton was…read morenecessary. Low and behold what did that wooden sign say out front? Did it say European pastries? We had absolutely no room for a single thing, but European? Traditionally European desserts are not heavy on the sugar, don't have all the food coloring, and additives. Ding Ding plus Ding my mind spins fast as my hubby is getting pulled at a rapid pace towards the door. He says "No Way" I say "For another time," as we don't live in the area. We walked in to see cases of pastry delights. I turn back as hubby dares not to enter entirely into the temptation. As I look back I see stacks of boxes, walk over to discover they are all pies! Anyone that knows me knows my last meal in life would consist of Berry Pie for dessert. I look and there it is a Mixed Berry. I turn and ask the lady after she was done with her customer how much for this delight? She said it's $24. Without question I grabbed said pie, and went to the register. I told her that Berry is my favorite, and she went on to say that every Friday is Pie Day. She also mentioned that if I ever needed anything in particular, I could call ahead. She could have it prepared for me. Wonderful lady and beautiful service. Might I add that a pie of this weight and stature normally runs about $35 even $40 in some places. We had a slice the next day because I could not bear it any longer. Without lie this is the best pie I've had in years!!!! Years or even perhaps ever. It has to be realized that if there is Berry Pie of any kind on the menu it will be ordered even to go. There were actual whole berries, and it was not full of sugar like some pies. You can taste the natural fruit of summer, and the crust was perfection!!!! Now I have to wait for a Birthday to order a cake. I'm sure it will be divine! I could take a pic of pie now but it's partially gone. Not so picturesque.

I stopped by recently to pick up a birthday treat for a friend, and a pistachio cannoli for me. They packaged everything separately in a cute bag. The pistachio cannoli was good but the pistachio filling tasted a bit artificial, not sure what they use, maybe a syrup. Their hours are great too. I believe I stopped by around 6PM and they still had plenty of desserts in the display case to pick from.

Plenty of parking in a big plaza next to a Poke place…read more Note there's not a lot of seating so bear that in mind. At most can seat ~15-20 people max. But more importantly the food. This bingsoo does the job. I think it's affiliated with Mandro the other well known bingsoo place. We ordered a regular which is enough for two. The matcha flavor was present and plenty of ingredients were given. All you can ask for. The service was quick. Waited only ~7-10 min for the bowl to come out. Will recommend in east bay if you need bingsoo in a pinch.

Some shop at Target or wander the isles of TJ Max as self care. We frequent Meadowlark dairy for our self care moment of bliss. If they have multiple flavors we will finish our cones and drive thru a second time just to try them all. Yup, it's that good. My only wish........is that they have a dangling menu like In and Out burger has when they take our order in the drive thru line. Many times after ordering and paying I'll see a sign promoting something new that I want, but it's too late. They have a website, Facebook page and a radio station that helps in these areas... but if you don't know... it's frustrating. I have learned to troll their Facebook page hahaha!

This place is actually Mochiholic or maybe Arisa Dessert will take over soon?…read moreWe walked in browsed the kiosk for a while and when we started to order donuts, and immediately were told they are about to close and may be out of some flavors. The girl working the counter was nice about it but could have saved us time before making all of our selections. We ended up just getting donuts and not the cold desserts. We went with the seasonal flavors like pandan, passion fruit, strawberry yogurt, strawberry, and Thai ice tea. The pandan and strawberry were good. The strawberry yogurt was weird and the passion fruit was had these freeze dried fruit on top that were a weird texture. There were tables and chairs inside to sit our orders before they closed.

So many ice cream and popsicle flavors to choose from. Not only do they have such amazing ice creams and popsicles but also casual appetizers/foods as well! For example, they have tamales and tortas which are so delicious! My ultimate favorite casual appetizer would be tostilocos. OMG so yummy! If you are looking for something sweet, spicy, with a hint of a little bit of salt, I most definitely recommend getting the tostilocos. Lastly, the music in there was good, nothing too loud, It was just right! You are able to hear each other and have a nice conversation. Overall, amazing experience here in La Michoacana Frozen Delights. If you ever have the chance and are craving a sweet treat or anything, definitely go to La Michoacana Frozen delights!

Ordered my crème brûlée Matcha drink, a Blackpink drink(strawberry w/Oreo type cookies on the bottom), ham&cheese taiyaki and vanilla custard taiyaki. This place exceeded my expectation! My son loved his drink and he usually doesn't like anything because he's a teenager lol. My matcha was so good. The quality of matcha was much better than other bakeries I usually go to. They also caramelized the sugar on the crème brûlée. The taiyaki came in a cute box. My ham and cheese was scrumptious and savory. The store was small and cozy with a warm welcoming ambience. The food and drinks were absolutely delicious. Definitely coming back here
