We don’t just fill a crepe; we architect it. From our house-made diplomat cream to the historic hojicha of Asakusa, every layer is precisely calibrated to evolve with every bite, ensuring a perfect balance from the first taste to the very last.

Tsutsumi’s menu is headlined by two exclusive creations supervised by Kamon-no-ko, one of Tokyo’s most celebrated traditional crepe houses.
“Asakusa Twilight” ($13.95): A visual and flavorful tribute to a Tokyo sunset. Featuring premium Valrhona chocolate from France paired with fragrant hojicha (roasted green tea). This crepe takes the diner on a journey—starting with light whipped cream, refreshing vanilla ice cream, and concluding with a sophisticated blend of hojicha custard and tart raspberry sauce.
“Kamon No.1” ($13.95): Adorned with a traditional Japanese crest (Kamon), this crepe blends New York cheesecake, hojicha custard, and blonde chocolate for a refined, adult sweetness that lingers beautifully.
✳︎The Artisan Standard: Daily Handcrafted Excellence
The crepe itself—the heart of our offering—is made with generous amounts of butter and milk, delivering a rich flavor that can be fully enjoyed even on its own.
All fillings, including our light yet indulgent creams, are carefully handcrafted from scratch each morning in our in-store kitchen.
With every bite, we strive to deliver a true expression of quality—where the freshness of ingredients and the dedication of our craftsmen come together to create an authentic taste experience.
✳︎Two Distinct Signature Styles
CLOUD CREPE: A celebration of lightness. Generously filled with an airy, melt-in-your-mouth whipped cream and signature diplomat cream, it delivers the elegance of a perfectly crafted parfait in a handheld format.
TORCH BRÛLÉE: An indulgent contrast of textures. Topped with a silky custard and torched right before your eyes to create a crisp, golden caramelized finish.
A Story That Continues
Following the Grand Opening, Tsutsumi plans to expand its narrative with new Kamon-no-ko collaborations, U.S.-exclusive flavors, and a selection of savory crepes for the lunchtime crowd.
A Beautiful Story, Wrapped.
Our concept is “A short story in a tiny crepe.”
Within each small crepe, we layer Japanese tradition with modern sensibility, creating a multi-layered experience of flavor.
Carefully crafted to keep every bite exciting until the very end, we invite you to experience this “story of taste” in Sawtelle.
