Temperature sored to 35 degrees celcius

with humidity that rivals the sauna

Many people carry hand towels with them

to wipe the sweat away

In our last eating challenge in August,

I was practically melting in within

It's that hot

So how does one stay cool during the summer in Tokyo?

This may be the best way

Eat icecream

Lots of it

And joining me for this special ice cream report is

Aoi

From WAORYU!TV

Hello!

Hello Aoi, how are you?

I'm fine thank you

Fantastic

So today we'll be eating icecream

Ice cream...yes

And inside NAKANO BROADWAY,

is a place where they have a unique ice cream cone

But first,

We're going to EBISU to take a look at

a real traditional ice cream shop

Take a look

Check it out!

Japanese Ice OUCA

is a trendy place on a busy intersection in Ebisu

where you can get some unique flavors

It's colorful

All natural

Flavors include:

Cherry blossom and red bean

milk

Soy bean powder and brown sugar

brown sugar and roasted green tea

Watermelon

Peach from Yamanashi Prefecture

Green tea from Kyoto

It's hard to pick one, but that's normal here

Pick three!

Size ranges from small to super large

I went for the cherry blossom and red bean

Macha green tea,

and soy bean powder and brown sugar flavors

Lovely

It comes with a cookie for a crisp bite

and salty seaweed strips

to add contrast to the sweetness

Trust me, it goes well together

Dig in, and let the cooling off begin

It really adds that

extra dimension that you don't get at any other

western ice cream shops

the salty, the sweet

the crunchy

awesome

It's nice to watch life pass you by in Ebisu

but it's so much better with ice cream

I wanted to know more about the store concept

so I asked the staff about it

They also have the shaved ice with milk ice cream

Polar bear

The red one with strawberry ears

and bean eyes are ultra cute

and super delicious

but we're not done

oh, no

This is the finale at OUCA

Shaved ice with green tea icecream

green tea syrup

Azuki red beans

and Mochi rice balls

in a trophy glass bowl

I can dream of this every night

The first bite

I'm instantly infected with a cold fever

It's the perfect match for me

ice cream, red beans

and green tea syrup and ice cream

it's so cool, it's hot

It needs to be devoured, right now

If you feel the urge,

head to Ebisu

for some of the best Japanese ice cream around

yeah

Back in Nakano

Aoi and I are ready

for the next ice cream flavor challenge

and this is it!

ice cream!

This is Daily Chico

and they have fantastic

Tower Ice Cream

They have 8 flavors

Vanilla

chocolate

strawberry

Cafe au lait

banana

grape

green tea

and RAMUNE

and 3 sizes

small

medium

and super size

The tower ice cream cone

All 8 flavors in 1

prices are reasonable, too

Well,

I guess you're gonna be able to eat this

this ice cream challenge with no problem, right?

Are you ready?

Go!

Let's go

Suzuki san preps the cone

Then fills her up

one swirl for each flavor

A sugary sky scraper

It defies gravity

It feels heavy in the hand

It's 700 grams

and maybe a bazillion calories

but who's counting?

What's the deal with this tower ice cream cone, anyway?

This is huge

It's 700 grams of ice cream

There's lot of flavors in here

RAMUNE is probably the most Japanese flavor

taste is soda

right

Are you ready?

Go

Strawberry

This thing is melting fast

Melting so fast

Melting melting!

mocca?

There is no rule book on how to eat this thing

biting, licking, gulping, sucking

It's all legal

But eat quickly

Be aware of the brain freeze

It can hit hard

right at the finish line

no!

Congratulations

Look at your hand

It's not over

Be careful when you eat it

you beat me

I won

but

That's not the point

The point is we come here to stay cool

And we're really cool

cool

Very very coolu

Very very cool

and I have a headache

A little bit of a headache

brain freeze

but we're lot cooler now

so if you want to survive the Japanese summer

come to Nakano

Eat some Japanese ice cream

and have some fun!

yeah, fun!
