Foodies in Vancouver certainly love matcha and Bon Crepe on Robson is a place where you can go for your green tea fix. Located within Konbiniya, a Japanese convenience store, Bon Crepe has been around since 2005 and is a food stall serving matcha desserts. There is a walk-up window facing Robson where you can place your order. You can also go into Konbiniya and order from inside where there are even a few dining tables.
Eventually, I arrived at Konbinya, a well-loved Japanese convenience store in which Bon Crepe was located. The Japanese crepe spot was especially intriguing in that menus were pasted on both sides of the shop, enabling passerbys to place orders at the outside window and コンビニ shoppers to dine at one of the three tables placed inside upon receiving their order.<br/ <br/ Green tea soft serve and Matcha Azuki parfaits seemed to be the top-sellers, which really came as no surprise considering the massive amount of visual appeal of both desserts. At that moment, however, I required a savoury option to serve as a late lunch.<br/ <br/ <br/ <br/ Their sole savoury option on their list of recommendations was the Teriyaki Chicken Mayo Crepe. I had nothing to lose, so I placed my order and headed inside to explore the quarters of the store while the couple prepared my Japanese crepe. Apparently, Konbinya has a special section dedicated to matcha-flavoured snacks!
The parfaits are a favourite treat at Bon Crepe on Robson Street. I recently had one with matcha softserve on top of layers of homemade creme caramel (wicked! , sponge cake, corn flakes, tapioca pearls, and spruced up with whipped cream, strawberries and vanilla wafer…. Yum! Heaven in a cup. The shop itself can be easily missed as it is part of a japanese tuck shop/market. They have a take out window where you can order not just soft serve and parfaits, but also crepes. However, my hands-down favourite is still their matcha soft serve, on its own, or in a parfait! It has a strong matcha flavour (you can taste the bitterness from the matcha , not overly sweet, and rich. Quality matcha ice cream!
You must try the Matcha soft serve here! It's absolutely delicious. You can really taste the Matcha flavor and it's not overly sweet or masked by any other flavors. Their parfaits here are the best in the city (in my opinion), they only offer two kinds: Vanilla pudding parfait and the Matcha and red bean parfait. The crepes here are pretty good as well!!
