The "snowflake ice" business in Akihabara continues to thrive. Xue-hua No Sato is one of the only places in all of Japan where you can order this delicious dessert, which tastes like eating sweetened snow made of ice cream. I wrote about the store last time I was here, and thought, hey, I should swing by again. You know, due diligence and all that. And look, they added a new flavor: chocolate powder, chocolate sauce, and corn flakes.
On Saturday, the place was absolutely packed -- the line went around the block and people filled the street corner eating their desserts. There's no seating, but people lean up against the guardrails on the street corner or jostle for position on one lonely bench. Some more photos of the crowd after the jump.
