A Sophisticated Summer Treat at Lake Biwa

The dessert is presented at the hotel’s signature dining venue, where the elevated position provides a wide perspective of Lake Biwa. This seasonal offering focuses on the balance between the natural sweetness of summer fruit and the refreshing acidity of citrus, served in a presentation that emphasizes texture and temperature.

Local Shiga Flavors and Elegant Textures

The dish utilizes jumbo lemons sourced from Higashiomi in Shiga Prefecture, known for their distinct aroma. The composition features layers of fluffy shaved ice, or kakigori, interspersed with succulent white peach and a combination of lemon cream and jelly. It is finished with a topping of rich mascarpone espuma and a peach macaron. Meringue sticks sprinkled with rose petals provide a crisp contrast to the soft layers of ice and cream.
