CHEESECAKE
Rikuro-ojisan no mise, Osaka
When that BOUNCY jiggle defies all physics!
.
We can confirm that yes, the videos and pictures you’ve seen are all real. This bouncy Japanese cheesecake is only sold in Uncle Rikuro’s in Osaka. We made the pilgrimage to try it and got there as soon as it opened in the morning to avoid the queues.
.
To be honest, I’d been waiting for over 4 years to finally try this cake so I mayyy have slightly overhyped it in my mind...
.
It’s certainly the softest and fluffiest cheesecake I had ever seen in my life. It definitely melts in your mouth like a dream cloud. But the taste was not what I expected. It’s not very sweet at all and reminds me a little of very slightly sweetened plain bread.
.
In any case, the experience was worth it. You get to see behind glass walls how the cheesecakes are made from start to finish. Each time the cakes freshly come out the oven, a bell is rung and everyone cheers! It’s a really great atmosphere 🤩
