A tiny Western-stylekakigōri shop, hidden in Itabashi.

"Glace" is French for "ice" — and "ice cream."

"Hikawa" is the name of a place in Tokyo.

In this small corner where two languages

echo each other, we opened a tiny shop devoted

to one thing: the perfect kakigōri.

Our owner is from Nabeshima, in Saga Prefecture, Kyushu.

Childhood memories of his grandfather's beloved

Old Imari porcelain inspired the bowls

we serve in today.

Together with Ureshino tea from his hometown,

we bring Saga's heritage to a bowl in Tokyo.

Our espuma cream is light as snow.

Five year-round classics, plus two monthly specials —

24 unique flavors across the year,

in rhythm with the seasons.

Come for the last bite of your day.
