This is a cafe, not a tea house. Try the Friendship Green Salad with chicken. The ginger soy dressing and the walnuts lightly dusted with sugar are really good.

Get the mochi ice cream! Cheap and sweet, it's a perfect mid day snack while strolling through the park. Strawberry is best! (Or get 2, they have a nice selection of bomb flavors!)

They have daifuku! Great if you're looking for something quick with your tea. I had the green masala chai iced. Quite a unique blend.

45 teas to choose from and veg options at reasonable places makes The tea pavilion one of the best places in the park to visit for a bite.

If you like miso soup...don't get it here. Not very flavorful.
