“Matcha Parfait” Torrance, 2025
Today I picked up Mariko and Bay from the airport, and after that we did a bit of shopping before stopping at Yamari for matcha. Mariko went for the matcha parfait, and I ordered a matcha latte. Both were really good and hit the spot after a busy afternoon.
In the evening we made our way to an old standby, CoCo Ichibanya Curry. I decided to mix things up and ordered the minced beef cutlet curry with cheese. It was decent, but the curry was not very hot temperature-wise, so the cheese did not melt as much as I had hoped. I also think I still prefer the pork cutlet over the minced beef. Still, it was fun to try something different, and CoCo always delivers a comforting meal.
