Somehow I had no idea that a Thai food chain would sell a Japanese-inspired dessert but this turned out absolutely delicious. This set meal cost $13.80 and consisted of a huge, crispy slab of toast and a drink (we chose green thai milk tea with minimum sugar).

The toast was so visually impressive. Served slightly warm on a wooden paddle, it was drizzled with caramel and chocolate sauce and a humongous scoop of bright white, creamy, coconut ice cream was balanced precariously on top. Chunks of fresh coconut flesh as well as coconut flakes were sprinkled around it. The toast itself was crunchy and golden brown on the outside but the inside was soft, savory and buttery. The bread absorbed the sweet sauces and coconut ice cream as it melted, forming an anchor for the different elements of the dish. Cuts had already been made in the toast so it could be torn apart easily.

It was the perfect sweet ending to a night out with a friend. Can't wait to come back and try the Thai Milk Tea version of this Shibuya Toast.
