    You need to try the azuki and ichigo at least once, delish! But you'll be back because everything in the display looks so tempting.

    If you get one of the items in the fridge like the Potato Croquette or even one of those spicy Tuna Rolls, make sure to ask the cashier to heat it up for you.
