This was a must for every Tokyo traveler and my family and friends would eagerly anticipate this confection whenever I'd come home. They'd look forward to the soft, spongy banana chiffon with the creamy, banana flavoured filling.
As years progressed, Tokyo Banana Cake was slowly replaced by other Japanese pasalubongs. These include Ginza Strawberry Cake, Royce Chocolates, Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory cookies and the Tiramisu Chocolate from Donki.
The list continues to grow as trips to Tokyo become more frequent, and people discover more unique food items from Japan.
But for me, the OG would still be those little gems wrapped in a yellow box.
The good news is, I can now have a taste of this classic cake without even riding a plane!
Woohoo! THE Tokyo Banana Cake is finally in MNL!
I'm going bananas over this. Seriously.
